History

Historical Context

After The Lego Group’s 2005 partnership with Lucasfilm produced LEGO Star Wars: The Video Game—selling over 50 million copies worldwide by 2019—Warner Bros. Games, which acquired TT Games in 2007, became the franchise’s primary publisher. Building on that proven formula, the studio announced the 2026 LEGO Batman: Legacy of the Dark Knight, featuring 30 Batmobiles and a $69.99 price.
