This game could use like 100% more Harley Quinnīeing one of the first Lego games to feature a full open world rather than just a hub world, Lego Batman 2 does things right by making sure there’s plenty to do in its version of Gotham City. I’m also a little disappointed that more villains weren’t utilized: after a brief opening with a few of Batman’s greatest foes, and a very brief trip to a Scarecrow-run Arkham Asylum, the game entirely focuses on Joker and Lex Luthor. It isn’t until the 14th level (out of 15) where they finally show up. That said, in a game named “DC Super Heroes” that is supposed to focus on the Justice League, the Justice League is absent for the vast majority of the game. It’s simple and goofy, the voice actors are surprisingly competent, and its got a few chuckles in it. Of course, Batman smells foul play and him and Robin team up with Superman to try and stop the two. After Lex Luthor becomes upset at losing the Man of the Year award to Bruce Wayne, he teams up with The Joker to try and win the election to become President of the United States. So can Lego Batman 2 help alleviate this fatigue, or does the game drag the hero down?įeaturing voice acting for the first time in the Lego series, Lego Batman 2 has a relatively simple story to tell. 2008’s Lego Batman was probably one of the first games when people got a little fatigued of the Lego formula. The Lego series will probably not be happy until it has games in every single conceivable IP. There may be differences between versions. Reviewer’s Note: I played this game on the PC.
