Lego Batman: Legacy of the Darkish Knight is bringing nearly each period of the Caped Crusader collectively for one brick-busting-then-building recreation, which is one thing the Lego recreation builders have “by no means executed earlier than.”
Lego Batman: Legacy of the Darkish Knight was introduced earlier this month at Gamescom 2025, and it appears to be borrowing from the superb Skywalker Saga – by that I imply it is chucking out references to all the sweeping sequence continuous and wildly experimenting with the Lego method.
In an interview with GamesRadar+, strategic director Johnathan Smith defined that TT Video games has “drawn upon many years of reference materials and incredible tales about Batman in motion pictures, TV reveals, comics and recreation, and introduced all of them collectively into one definitive, important, epic story of Batman.”
“So it is a fusion of all these iconic moments that you simply bear in mind, laced and woven with deep reduce references and our personal humorous jokes, to deliver the expertise of changing into the Darkish Knight to life for gamers. We draw upon all of them, and we deliver them collectively, after which we create one story that unifies and is crucial.”
Legacy of the Darkish Knight’s builders aren’t creating this “fusion” with cutscenes and comedy alone, although. Lego Batman’s fight is seemingly solely influenced by Rocksteady’s Arkham video games this time round, and Gotham Metropolis is now far more immersive than ever earlier than due to tech created for the Skywalker Saga.
“We really feel it is an enormous privilege,” Smith continued. “We really feel we have the richest quantity of fabric to attract from, and we’re so excited that nobody’s ever put all these items collectively in a single expertise with a online game. We will do this in a means that nobody’s ever seen or skilled earlier than, with new know-how and a extremely immersive Gotham metropolis, with mechanics that progress the participant expertise to match the emotional journey of the character.”
