Editing LEGO Batman: The Videogame

Lego Batman: The Videogame is an upcoming video game developed by Traveller's Tales. It will be released on September 23, 2008 Players will be able to fight on land, sea and in the air using a number of powerful Batman, Robin and villain-controlled vehicles, including the Batmobile, Batboat and Batwing.[citation needed] New moves featured in Lego Indiana Jones: The Original Adventures will be added, such as swimming underwater, seen in a gameplay trailer. New abilities include picking up and carrying enemies and walking on tightropes over the city.

All the characters from the play range are in the game such as Batman, Robin, the Joker, Catwoman and the Penguin. New characters that are not in the lego sets are added as well such as Batgirl, the Mad Hatter, Clayface, Man-Bat and Killer Moth. The characters are able to use many unique abilities: the Joker is able to attack enemies and activate machines with a joy buzzer, the Penguin is able to glide over gaps with his umbrella, Catwoman can attack foes with a whip in a similar fashion to Indy from Lego Indiana Jones, and Killer Croc can punch enemies with such force that they fly off-screen. Both Batman and Robin have their animated TV show dressing style, but players are able to swap Batman and Robin's costumes, called tech suits.

Batman starts in grey suit and can wear a rocket/gray suit, a sonic/blue suit, a bat bomb/grey suit and a shadow/black suit. Robin can wear a technology/red-yellow suit, a dive/red-blue suit, a magnetic/red-grey suit and a gravity suit. When you find those suits you can buy them in the hubs and play as those in free play.

As in the previous Lego games (such as Lego Star Wars and Lego Indiana Jones), once a player completes a level, that level is unlocked in 'Freeplay Mode'. Freeplay mode allows the player to replay any level they've completed with any characters they've unlocked, unlike Story Mode, which only allows players to switch between the characters involved in that scene. This permits access to areas containing extras the player was unable to get before.[citation needed]

The PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 versions will offer 720p and 1080p displays.
