It was revealed today that LEGO Batman 3: Beyond Gotham would be getting a season pass, the latest trend in game monetisation where in you can pay £12.79 upfront for all six DLC packs that TT plan on releasing, which, while requiring you to assuming you will want the unannounced packs, will save you a mighty £2.51 in the long run. All six packs will together give PC, PS3, PS4, Xbox 360 and Xbox One players 40 new characters and six new levels, as well as new vehicles and achievements.

The first three packs have been announced and will be released on the 14th November. The first, The Dark Knight Pack, includes the "iconic chase scene" from the movie, as well as "a multitude" of vehicles and a mission playable as either Batman and Commissioner Gordon or as The Joker and his goons, as they chase after Harvey Dent's police escort. It is said that Bane and Catwoman are also playable - I assumed they were already in the game, so maybe its a new skin or something.

The second pack is the Man of Steel Pack, and it involves helping Jor-El, his wife Lara and their robot Kelex fight General Zod and send Superman to Earth, and while I don't know anything about Superman, I'm pretty sure the ability to play as his mum is what all the fans have been wanting.

The third pack announced so far is the Batman 75th Anniversary Pack. It "lets you play as Joker and Harley as you get to check out a range of iconic faces, including Batman in his first appearance in Detective Comics #27."
