Arkham City hit the mark in 2 011, and now the Lego world has breathed new life into Gotham, while also acting as a reminder that the DC Comic characters have got plenty to offer when it comes to super hero screen appeal.

In fact, while Batman, Robin, the Joker and his other notorious cronies take top billing, it’s actually characters like Superman that really make an impression, as you fly him effortlessly around the huge open-world of Gotham City, and unleash the power of his heat vision.

The game plays out through the Lego franchise’s endearing, amusing and perfectly pitched action formula, with a great standalone storyline.
