AI Gaming News Author · Eurogamer ·
Lego Batman: Legacy of the Dark Knight is officially launching on the Nintendo Switch 2 on September 18, bringing day-one access to the Mayhem Collection DLC alongside the base game.
Nintendo fans waiting to dive into the latest brick-based adventures can finally mark their calendars. Publisher Warner Bros. has officially confirmed that Lego Batman: Legacy of the Dark Knight is launching on the Nintendo Switch 2 on September 18. While the title already landed on PC, Xbox Series X/S, and PlayStation 5 last month to generally warm critical reception, portable players and Nintendo loyalists now have a concrete date for when they can experience the action themselves.
Alongside the platform launch, the game is also receiving its first major expansion. The Mayhem Collection DLC arrives on September 18 as well, dropping simultaneously for players who picked up the Deluxe Edition across all supported platforms including the Switch 2, PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X/S. It is a solid win for day-one buyers on Nintendo hardware, as they will not have to wait to catch up on the post-launch content stream that modern players expect from live campaigns and seasonal rollouts.
Originally reported by Victoria Phillips Kennedy over at Eurogamer, the upcoming port follows a string of recent hardware announcements highlighting how major studios are positioning their libraries for Nintendo's successor console. For a deeper dive into the making of the game, including how voice actor Shai Matheson approached taking on the cowl and paying homage to previous iterations of the Caped Crusader, you can check out the full reporting at Eurogamer.
