HIGHLIGHTS
The LEGO Batman series is one of the most iconic collaborations either IP has ever been involved with, and that success explains why the release of LEGO Batman: Legacy of the Dark Knight is such a major deal. The release date has been bumped up a week, and here's everything you need to know.

LEGO Batman fans got a treat. Instead of a delayed release date, they're getting the game a week earlier than originally thought. The new global launch is set for May 22, 2026 on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC via Steam and Epic Games Store.
A Nintendo Switch 2 version is on the way but won’t hit on day one — that release is currently listed as "coming later" with no firm date attached. The week-earlier shift on current-gen platforms puts LEGO Batman ahead of a crowded late-spring release window that's already shaping up to be busy.
The Deluxe Edition is where the real value lives for big Batman fans. The Standard Edition runs $69.99 and includes the base game, while the Deluxe jumps to $89.99 and adds two major DLC bundles plus three days of early access starting May 19.
Every pre-order — Standard or Deluxe — comes with the Dark Knight Returns Batsuit at launch, a nod to Frank Miller’s iconic comic. That cosmetic alone makes the pre-order worth considering, and Deluxe buyers stack it with the Legacy Collection at launch and the post-launch Mayhem Collection.
This is the most ambitious LEGO Batman story yet. Placing this in an open world and placing a decent amount of weight on the customization of the Bat Cave and more is daring, and it could potentially push this version to new heights.
The story traces Bruce Wayne from his League of Shadows training all the way to becoming Gotham’s protector, pulling easter eggs from across the films, comics, and other Batman media.
The playable cast is intentionally tight at seven characters: Batman, Jim Gordon, Batgirl, Nightwing, Robin, Catwoman, and Talia al Ghul. Each one carries a unique skill set — stealth, detective vision, hacking, melee, acrobatics — that pushes you to swap during puzzles and combat.
The Legacy and Mayhem packs make a strong case for the Deluxe Edition. The Legacy Collection ships at launch with three themed packs — Arkham Trilogy, Batman Beyond, and Party Music — each carrying seven character suits, one Batmobile, and five Batcave customization props.
The Mayhem Collection arrives post-launch and adds a new story mission where you break out of Arkham Asylum as The Joker and Harley Quinn, plus a chaos-focused Mayhem Mode set in Gotham. A Sinister Pack rounds it out with seven villain-themed suits, a Batmobile, and a Batcave prop set, giving Deluxe buyers a steady drip of content well past launch day.
