More On: LEGO Batman: Legacy of the Dark Knight

If nothing else, LEGO Batman: Legacy of the Dark Knight certainly passes the vibe check by tapping into Batman’s deep cinematic history. Warner Bros. Games and DC have revealed a new cinematic trailer showcasing the game’s playful re-creation of the iconic art museum scene from Tim Burton’s 1989 Batman flick.

In the scene, Jack Nicholson’s version of the Joker and his band of rogues visit the Gotham City museum and commit some mild vandalism. Warner Bros. Games translated the scene to the LEGO style and tone, and even threw in Prince’s “Partyman” song for good measure. You can check it out below.

LEGO Batman: Legacy of the Dark Knight launches May 29th for PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S, with 72-hour early access available to those who pre-order the Deluxe Edition. A Nintendo Switch 2 version is also in the works, but no release date has been announced.
