Batman Day Featurette Spotlights LEGO Batman: Legacy of the Dark Knight’s Origin and Arkham-Style Play

A behind-the-scenes short emphasizes a cinematic reboot distilling decades of Batman into an open-world LEGO Gotham.

Overview

  • Warner Bros. Games and TT Games released an eight-minute video confirming the story begins with a young Bruce Wayne and includes League of Shadows training before he becomes Batman.
  • Footage and developer commentary highlight Arkham-inspired combat, traversal, and Batmobile sequences adapted for a LEGO, all-ages approach.
  • James Gunn says the project brings together many facets of the character so players can experience Batman more completely than before.
  • DC’s Jim Lee describes Gotham as a highly detailed LEGO city that reads as bricks up close and a cohesive metropolis from a distance, with locations like Wayne Manor and the Batcave.
  • The game is slated for 2026 on PC, PS5, Xbox Series X|S and Nintendo Switch, and reports from the featurette identify Matt Berry as Bane and Shai Matheson as Bruce Wayne/Batman.
