LEGO Batman: Legacy of the Dark Knight ‘Building the Legacy’ Video Released

LEGO Batman: Legacy of the Dark Knight 'Building the Legacy' Video Released

LEGO and DC have released a new behind the scenes video for LEGO Batman: Legacy of the Dark Knight, titled “Building the Legacy.” The video features DC Universe head and director James Gunn, famous artist Jim Lee, as well as the developers behind the upcoming game, speaking behind the impact and importance behind the Batman character. 

All of the aforementioned speakers talk about what it means to continue the story of The Dark Knight through the LEGO medium. Traveler’s Tales detail how it was able to pull from every comic, film, and TV show adaptation in this brand-new experience. There is also new footage from Legacy of the Dark Knight, confirming the inclusion of costumes and Batmobiles from Batman: The Animated Series, Batman Forever, and the very first appearance of Batman in Detective Comics #27. 

Check out the LEGO Batman: Legacy of the Dark Knight “Building the Legacy” behind the scenes video below:

Recently, James Gunn teased plans for future games set in the DC Universe (or DCU). Gunn’s comments come a few months after major restructuring at WB Games, which led to the cancellation of the previously announced Wonder Woman game. When asked about how DCU’s gaming initiative is looking, Gunn states that “there’s been some slight movement on different things. We have a couple of little DC games coming out.

But we also have talked about – and in early stages of planning – some bigger things. One thing in particular I’m excited about, but it does take time. There’s been some changes in Warner Bros. Games, and so we’re dealing with new people.”

LEGO Batman: Legacy of the Dark Knight will release in 2026 for PS5, Xbox Series X|S, PC via Steam, and Nintendo Switch 2.
