"The launch trailer for LEGO Batman: Legacy of the Dark Knight includes the song 'Kiss from a Rose' by Seal."
The iconic 1995 track, originally used in the credits of 'Batman Forever' and its music video—though absent from the film itself—sets the mood for this homage-filled game.
The game pays direct tribute to various Batman films, including a visual nod to 'Batman & Robin', featuring a scene from that film's finale in the trailer.
Developed by TT Games, this title incorporates combat mechanics reminiscent of the acclaimed 'Arkham' series. A preview gave a positive assessment of the gameplay, but noted subpar performance on PC at that time.
LEGO Batman: Legacy of the Dark Knight is scheduled for release on Xbox Series X|S, PS5, and PC on May 22nd. A Nintendo Switch 2 version is planned for a later date.
