'LEGO Batman 3: Beyond Gotham' Features Deathstroke, Beast Boy, New 52's Frankenstein [WATCH]
Featuring the popular superheroes and super villains of the DC Comics Universe, LEGO Batman 3: Beyond Gotham has announced the latest round of characters added to the highly anticipated videogame. Joining the Justice League against Superman's deadliest enemy, Brainiac, are Deathstroke the Terminator, Teen Titans' Beast Boy, and the New 52's Frankenstein.
As we mentioned, the game follows Brainiac, who has set his sights on our planet as his ultimate prize. The maniacal genius uses his advanced nanotechnology to claim Earth as his own toy. With the Earth in danger, it looks like the Legion of Doom, which includes the Joker and Lex Luthor (Clancy Brown reprising his role), and the Super-Friends have to team-up against intergalactic warlord.
We previously reported on a behind-the-scenes trailer featuring Stephen Amell (Arrow), Conan O'Brien, and Kevin Smith (Comic Book Men). We see the Arrow actor reading off his lines in the recording studio. In the game, Green Arrow will actually be fighting in outer space along with the other Justice League members. During the levels, the red-haired comedian shows up to offer guidance to gamers when they get lost.
In this latest footage from DC Entertainment, game director Arthur Parsons presents at least three new characters. Just like in the comics, Beast Boy changes into a bird or a gorilla, depending on his environment. Also joining Amell from Arrow is Deathstroke, who shows up slashing his way left and right with his sword.
Surprisingly, making his way from Frankenstein, Agent of S.H.A.D.E., this is a great for newcomers to meet our title hero. Though Krypto the Super-dog is teased in the video, we would've loved seeing footage of Superman's pet.

LEGO Batman 3: Beyond Gotham arrives on November 14, just in time for the Thanksgiving holidays. Readers, are you excited to take play as Deathstroke and Beast Boy?
