On Metacritic, it has an average score of over 84 across three different platforms (Xbox S\/X, PS5 and PC), which is higher than any previous titles including <em>Lego Star Wars<\/em> and <em>Lego Marvel Super Heroes.<\/em> Unfortunately, folks who prefer to game on Nintendo have been missing out so far. But that changes this fall when <em>Lego Batman<\/em> arrives on the Switch 2 on September 18.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><em>Legacy of the Dark Knight<\/em> for the Switch 2 will be available in two versions: the Standard Edition for $70 and the Deluxe Edition for $90. The latter comes with the base game plus the Legacy Collection DLC and access to the new Mayhem Collection DLC, which is getting a simultaneous launch across every platform (Xbox S\/X, PS5, PC and Switch 2) on September 18. However, potentially the most enticing bonus for people who order a physical copy of the deluxe version is a free Lego Retro Video Game Batman minifigure. But if you want it, you&#8217;ll need to be quick because Warner Bros. says this offer will only be available &#8220;while supplies last.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"LEGO\u00ae Batman\u2122: Legacy of the Dark Knight | Nintendo Switch\u2122 2 Release Date Announcement\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/tl612oZLaOc?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">For Switch 2 owners, WB Games is hoping to sweeten the deal even further with a handful of pre-order bonuses. Anyone who buys either version of the game will get a special Dark Knight Returns Batsuit, while people who opt for the deluxe edition will also get three days of early access before the game officially launches on the 18th.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">As for the Mayhem Collection, the upcoming DLC features a new game mode starring The Joker and Harley Quinn as playable characters along with a new story mission, extra suits for Batman, more items for the Batcave and a new look for the Batmobile. Meanwhile, for any existing owners of the base game, you&#8217;ll be able to purchase all the contents from the deluxe edition as a standalone upgrade for $25.<\/p>\n<p>Pre-orders for <em>Lego Batman: Legacy of the Dark Knight<\/em> are live now.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<center><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.engadget.com\/2186891\/lego-batman-legacy-of-the-dark-knight-is-headed-to-the-switch-2-on-september-18\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Read Full Article At Source <\/a><br \/>\n<center\/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Current owners can also look forward to the new Mayhem Collection DLC, which launches the same day. &#13;&#13;&#13; &#13; Warner Bros.
