We’ve been waiting to see what the pre-order bonus would be for this November’s video game LEGO Batman 3: Beyond Gotham. Via Game Informer, the bonus isn’t just one, but many, and varied depending on where you pre-order your game.
Here’s what you can get and where to get it:
Some of the items can be purchased on their own like the keychains or minisets. I myself will be making sure to ge tthe Plastic Man minifigure. Check out images below of what you can expect.
You’ll never guess which playable DC Comics characters you’ll find in LEGO Batman 3: Beyond Gotham (or what you’ll be able to turn Cyborg into…seriously, you won’t guess it). So we suggest watching this exclusive DC All Access bonus clip where LEGO Batman 3‘s Game Director, Arthur Parsons, discusses what we can expect from this upcoming game.
In LEGO Batman 3: Beyond Gotham, the Caped Crusader joins forces with the super heroes of the DC Comics Universe and blasts off to outer space to stop the evil Brainiac from destroying Earth. Using the power of the Lantern Rings, Brainiac shrinks worlds to add to his twisted collection of miniature cities from across the universe. Now the greatest super heroes and the most cunning villains must unite and journey to different Lantern Worlds to collect the Lantern Rings and stop Brainiac before it’s too late.
Players will unlock more than 150 unique characters from the DC Comics universe, including members of the Justice League and LEGO big figures such as Killer Croc, Solomon Grundy and many more. Fans of all ages will be able to control their favourite heroes and villains with new gadgets and abilities. Brainiac’s mind controlling abilities and the power of the Lantern rings bring unexpected twists to the classic characters’ personalities.
