May 8, 2026 - 21:58

Warner Bros. Games has released the official launch trailer for LEGO Batman: Legacy of the Dark Knight, offering fans a final look at the game before its release. The trailer blends gameplay footage with cinematic cutscenes, all set to Seal's iconic 1990s ballad Kiss from a Rose.

The choice of music is a deliberate nod to Batman Forever, the 1995 film that featured the song on its soundtrack. The trailer uses the track to underscore moments of both action and introspection, showing Batman gliding through Gotham, fighting classic villains like the Joker and Two-Face, and interacting with Robin and Batgirl. The contrast between the playful LEGO aesthetic and the serious tone of the song creates a unique atmosphere.

Gameplay sequences highlight the title's signature humor and puzzle-solving elements. Players can explore an open-world Gotham City, unlock various Bat-vehicles, and switch between multiple characters. The trailer also teases key story beats, suggesting the game will cover several major Batman storylines from the comics and films.

LEGO Batman: Legacy of the Dark Knight is set to launch on PC, PlayStation, Xbox, and Nintendo Switch. The full game promises a single-player campaign and a cooperative mode for local multiplayer.
