LEGO Batman: Legacy of the Dark Knight is a fun, lighthearted take on The Dark Knight

LEGO Batman: Legacy of the Dark Knight combines the lighthearted humor of the LEGO franchise with the depth of the Arkham combat system. The game features an open-world Gotham and references various iterations of the Batman character from comics and film.
