How it plays

How does LEGO Batman: The Videogame play?

The game uses a side-scrolling, three-dimensional platforming perspective across compact Gotham-themed stages. Players move through levels, fight enemies, assemble LEGO objects, solve environmental puzzles, and collect studs and other hidden items.

Batman and Robin use different suits and equipment, while other characters provide abilities needed to reach blocked areas. Story stages can be replayed in Free Play with a larger roster, allowing players to collect missed items and open alternate routes. Progression comes from completing chapters, unlocking characters, and improving completion totals.
