Lego Batman: Legacy of the Dark Knight is a new Arkham game in all but name. It combines the combat of the Rocksteady series, the open world of Arkham Knight, and a shedload of TT Games humour to create a game that Batman fans will likely love.

While the low level of challenge (even for a Lego game) makes the main missions somewhat pedestrian, Gotham is great fun to explore, and the game’s writing elicits regular chuckles. The Lego games have always been funny, but for this one, TT Games has cracked up the British humour significantly.

Lego Batman: Legacy of the Dark Knight isn’t the retelling of one Batman story; it’s an amalgam of all of Batman’s greatest hits, iterations and eras mashed together. It does at times come across as a bit “play the hits,” but the way TT Games transitions characters like The Joker from his Jack Nicholson camp to Heath Ledger-era sociopathy is well handled and very tongue-in-cheek.
