LEGO Batman: Legacy of the Dark Knight Release Date Revealed

Geoff Keighley took an important phone call during The Game Awards… from LEGO Batman live from the Batcave.

We got official word that LEGO Batman: Legacy of the Dark Knight is releasing on May 29, 2026. Warner Bros. and DC also announced that pre-orders are now open.

We got a look at some of Batman’s buds, including:

…Robin with his trusty line launcher, Nightwing and his battle staff, Batgirl sporting her versatile hackarang, and Catwoman with her signature whip and loyal companion kitten – all equipped with their own unique abilities, progression trees, combos, and gadgets.

The trailer also revealed new DC Super-Villains that players will take on, such as Two-Face, Poison Ivy, Firefly, and Mr. Freeze, along with other members of the notorious Rogues Gallery in The Joker, The Penguin, Ra’s al Ghul, and Bane. Plus, fans will catch an initial glimpse of the iconic Batmobile from Batman: The Animated Series and Batpod from The Dark Knight and The Dark Knight Rises films, which can be used to traverse the in-game open world.

Here are the editions up for pre-order and the extras they come with:

(Players can also unlock the Golden Age Batsuit at launch, a classic outfit based on the Caped Crusader’s debut look from Detective Comics #27 (1939), accessible for eligible users who create a Warner Bros. Games account, as well as those who already have an account, according to a news release.)
