Series guide
All LEGO Batman games in order
By Lenn Hodes · founder — every cartridge tested by hand
LEGO Batman is the series where the modern LEGO games learned to tell their own stories: the 2008 original was the first of the film-formula line without a film to follow, and by the end of the trilogy the whole Justice League had moved in. Below are all three games in order, with what each one added and the platforms linked — because those are the copies we stock and test.
The short answer
LEGO Batman: The Videogame (2008) → LEGO Batman 2: DC Super Heroes (2012) → LEGO Batman 3: Beyond Gotham (2014). No order required — start with DC Super Heroes, the one with the open Gotham.

— the trilogy leaves Earth for the Lantern worlds
Do you have to play them in order?
No. Each story stands alone. What release order shows is the LEGO formula growing up: the original tells its villain-breakout plot without a spoken word, DC Super Heroes adds a voice cast and an open Gotham to fly over, and Beyond Gotham trades the city for the Lantern worlds with the whole League playable.
Which one should you buy now?
- The complete one: LEGO Batman 2: DC Super Heroes — open world, voice acting, and the moment Superman steals the show.
- The classic: the 2008 original on Wii — pure wordless LEGO slapstick with a proper villain plot.
- The biggest roster: Beyond Gotham on Wii U — space levels and a cast far past Gotham.
Buying LEGO Batman second-hand
Three games, three eras of the LEGO formula
The 2008 original is classic silent-slapstick LEGO with its own villain plot; part 2 introduced spoken dialogue and an open-world Gotham; part 3 goes full Justice League in space. They play noticeably differently — the notes above say which flavour you are buying.
After the trilogy came LEGO DC Super-Villains
The 2018 follow-up flipped the premise and put the villains in charge. If you finish the trilogy and want more of the same world on the consoles we stock, that is the game to look for — the new LEGO Batman: Legacy of the Dark Knight (2026) is a PS5, Xbox Series, PC and Switch 2 release, not a cartridge for the older systems.
Handheld versions are their own games
The DS and 3DS releases are separate builds with adapted levels, not ports of the console versions — our 3DS copy of DC Super Heroes is that handheld build, and the listing says so.
Check the region on disc consoles
Wii and Wii U discs are PAL region-locked, and the 3DS cartridge is region-locked too. Every listing states the region and exactly what you get, loose or boxed.
Every copy tested before it is listed
Booting, a level in co-op, saving, label and disc condition — checked on real hardware.

Originals only; if something ever turns out not to be genuine, you get your money back.
Browse tested LEGO gamesQuestions we get asked
Do I need to play the LEGO Batman games in order?
No. Each has a self-contained story. Release order shows the formula evolving — silent comedy, then voice acting and an open city, then the space-faring finale.
Is there a LEGO Batman 4?
Not under that name, but the series did come back: LEGO Batman: Legacy of the Dark Knight was released on 29 May 2026 for PS5, Xbox Series and PC, with a Nintendo Switch 2 version on 18 September 2026. Between the trilogy and that game, LEGO DC Super-Villains (2018) let you play the bad guys.
Which LEGO Batman should I start with?
LEGO Batman 2: DC Super Heroes — the open Gotham and full voice cast make it the most complete one. The 2008 original is for fans of the classic wordless LEGO style.
Was there a game of The LEGO Batman Movie?
Not a standalone one — the 2017 film got a story pack for LEGO Dimensions instead.
Can two people play together?
Yes — drop-in local co-op on one screen is the series standard. The handheld builds are single-player focused.
Do you ship outside the Netherlands?
We ship to all 27 EU countries with track & trace, and beyond the EU to the US, Switzerland, Liechtenstein, Australia, New Zealand, Hong Kong, Singapore, Israel, the United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia, Qatar and Kuwait. Parcels leave from the Netherlands, there are no customs charges within the EU — US orders include the import duty up front — and your country’s exact rate appears at checkout before you pay.
Years given are the first release; European dates were sometimes a few months later. Dutch reader? Onze LEGO-collectie in het Nederlands.
