Lego Batman 3: Beyond Gotham Season Pass Announced

To be spread across a period of time, the Season Pass will give gamers the chance to own all six upcoming DLC for one lower price.

Three of the DLC packs will be available when the game launches on 14th November, with three more to be announced at a later date. The Season Pass will be available for the  PS3, PS4,  Xbox 360, Xbox One and PC for £12.79. Each pack can be purchased separately for £2.55.

But what will the DLC consist of? More than the usual for a Lego game.

You will get the normal assortment of extra characters, of course, but you also get vehicles, achievements and - in a twist - new levels. Here's what the first three contain:

The Dark Knight Pack
Experience the heart-pounding chase scene from the iconic film complete with cool vehicles and explosive action. Play as the legendary Dark Knight and Commissioner Gordon, as well as the Joker and his goons as they chase down Harvey Dent’s police escort. Bane and Catwoman from the third film are also playable.

Man of Steel Pack
Help Jor-El, his wife Lara and their robot Kelex send the infant Superman “Kal-el” into space towards the safety of Earth as Krypton falls into chaos. Find a way inside Jor-El’s home, fight General Zod’s invading forces and battle against Zod himself to save Superman.

Batman 75th Pack

Play as Joker and Harley, setting up a variety of celebration set pieces. Be the Batman and play as some of the most iconic faces of Batman through the years, including his first appearance in Detective Comics #27.

So in a freeplay level, you could play as the original Batman, the Adam West Batman and the Christian Bale Batman. If the next announced pack isn't Tim Burton's Batman, allowing us to play as Michael Keaton, then there is no justice in gaming. Unless they then force us to play through Joel Schumacher's Batman and have to use the George Clooney Bat-nipple suit...
