LEGO Batman: Legacy of the Dark Knight Guide: How to Unlock Every Suit

Quick Answer: You will not unlock the best outfits in the game just by playing the story. TT Games hid over 63 unique costumes behind a massive open world grind, requiring you to hunt down zoo animals, complete AR trials, open WayneTech Caches, and spend millions of studs. You can equip unlocked suits instantly from the pause menu, provided you are not currently driving a vehicle.

Escaping the Default Wardrobe

Gotham is way too fashionable for you to run around in the exact same sweaty cape and cowl for your entire playthrough. You have dozens of cosmetic options waiting for you, but grabbing all of them is an absolute marathon.

The developers locked the coolest designs behind a massive wall of side content. If you want to build out a complete closet, you have to track down missing zoo animals, survive frustrating augmented reality trials, solve an absurd number of Riddler puzzles, and dump a fortune of studs at Bat Mite’s shop. Prepare for a serious grind if you plan on reaching 100 percent completion.

How the Customization System Actually Works

Before you waste time running around the Batcave clicking on every single computer terminal, let me explain how to actually change your clothes. The wardrobe system is fully integrated into the open world UI.

You swap outfits on the fly, but you absolutely must step out of your vehicle first. The menu will not work if you are sitting in the Batmobile.

• Press the pause button to bring up the main interface.
• Use the right bumper to tab over to your Characters menu.
• Press your designated action button to open the Suit Options panel.
• Select any unlocked outfit from the grid.

Your character will seamlessly transition into the new gear. There are zero loading screens, meaning you can swap costumes mid jump if you are fast enough.

If you are stuck grinding out the main campaign to unlock some of these outfits and need a hand dealing with Arkham Asylum’s inmates, check out our complete walkthrough for the Joker interrogation sequence right here so you do not miss a single Easter egg.

Bruce Wayne’s Massive Closet

Batman hoards the vast majority of the cosmetic items. His lineup covers everything from his vintage comic book appearances to a ridiculously bulky armored vampire design. Here is exactly what you need to do to unlock his massive wardrobe.

Robin’s Gear

Dick Grayson makes you work for his best looks. You will need to beat down Waylon Jones and knock out a massive chunk of the open world AR trials to earn his top tier gear.

Batgirl’s Outfits

Barbara Gordon demands a ridiculous amount of exploration. She forces you to track down and break open 80 separate WayneTech Caches just to secure her amazing DC Bombshells aesthetic.

Nightwing’s Suits

If you thought Batgirl was demanding, Nightwing raises the bar. You have to locate and open an absurd 110 WayneTech Caches to grab his classic retro video game suit.

Catwoman’s Costumes

Selina Kyle keeps her unlock requirements incredibly thematic. She forces you to directly dismantle the local mafia infrastructure to access her animated series skin.

Talia al Ghul’s Attire

Talia easily demands the highest overall time investment in the entire game. You have to hunt down and open a staggering 180 WayneTech Caches just to get your hands on her Bronze Age suit.

Premium and DLC Skins

If you do not have the time to hunt down 180 hidden crates, you can bust out your real world wallet or link your external accounts to bypass the grind entirely. These skins are highly exclusive, and some of them drop globally across your entire roster if you bought the expensive edition of the game.
