In case you missed it, earlier this week Warner Bros. Games and DC revealed a new cinematic from LEGO® Batman™: Legacy of the Dark Knight, recreating the iconic sequence seen in the DC’s Batman (1989) movie in which The Joker takes over the Gotham City museum, turning it into his own personal art gallery. Delightfully reimagined in LEGO form, the fun-filled moment is set against the backdrop of the “Partyman” song by legendary musician Prince, which was famously debuted in the classic film.
Developed by TT Games, the game is an action-adventure videogame inviting players to embark on Bruce Wayne’s epic journey to become the Caped Crusader from origin to legend. Inspired by decades of Batman films, television shows, comic books, and games, this heroic story-led campaign combines DC lore and signature LEGO humor in the ultimate LEGO Batman experience.
Watch the brand new cinematic in the player below:
