LEGO Batman: Legacy of the Dark Knight Reviews
Professional reviews from gaming critics

Does TT Games pull off its largest LEGO game yet or is LEGO Batman: Legacy of the Dark Knight a legacy best relegated to the shadows?
So no, I did not like LEGO Batman: Legacy of the Dark Knight. A game that uses the Batman license to upsell you DLC, costumes and references the second you boot up the game. Did you know you get special costumes if you link your HBO Max account to the game? Like a rube I did of course, and sure my Black Lantern batman looks very cool. For five seconds. Each night I went back in and hoped that this time the game would click for me. But it never did. In fact its aspirations kept running into the flimsy ground it was built upon. If anything I kept lamenting what we lost in Rocksteady and Batman g...
LEGO Batman: Legacy of the Dark Knight offers a celebration of over 80 years of Batman history. While its ambition may not be fully realised with a few technical hiccups, it feels like the title is appropriate in all the ways that matter.
Lego Batman: Legacy of the Dark Knight comes with all the Batman fun without any Batman baggage — you can jump right in without worrying about catching up on any plot. Jay Weaver reviews.
