Prepare yourself, a “Season Pass” will soon be available for a children’s game as WB Games has announced they are planning to produce six downloadable content packs that expand on Lego Batman 3: Beyond Gotham. The first three packs (which are based on The Dark Knight, Man of Steel, and Batman’s early comic appearances) will be available on November 11 alongside the game’s launch:
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.
Each pack will be available for $2.99 apiece or as part of the Season Pass (which will sell for $14.99). The Season Pass will only be offered for the PC, PS3, PS4, Xbox 360, and Xbox One. It looks like players who planned on purchasing Lego Batman 3 on the 3DS, Vita, or Wii U are out of luck and it’s currently unknown if the DLC will even be available on those platforms.
Details and release dates for the final three packs will be announced at a later date.
