Featuring the popular superheroes and super villains of the DC Comics Universe, LEGO Batman 3: Beyond Gotham have plans in store for Arrow fans. From the future DC Comics Universe, gamers will get to play as Oliver Queen (Stephen Amell's Green Arrow), Slade Wilson, and hear Troy Baker as the Dark Knight himself.
As we previously mentioned, the narrative focuses on 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 to play with. 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 the intergalactic warlord to save the world.
In the DLC package, we reported that the Dark Knight pack and Man of Steel pack were featured the Season Pass trailer. There will also be an upcoming level where gamers will play as Ollie (Amell reprising his Arrow role), who's stuck on the island with Deathstroke the Terminator.

TT Games director Arthur Parsons explains to CBR TV how the game developers approached the TV show, "You go back to the island, it's all about Oliver Queen and his experience with Slade Wilson and all that sort of stuff, so it's very sort of canon, but in a LEGO way. It's so funny, and it brings the show to loads more people as well."
Parsons adds, "Hearing it delivered like the TV Arrow, but written by, obviously, us guys who have fun writing it. It just makes for great fun. Hopefully when people get to play it they will just be like 'That's brilliant, absolutely bang on.'"

Baker then describes the feeling of voicing the caped crusader, "You don't need to reinvent the wheel, but what you can do is kind of put like sweet rims on it. That's what we've done, and these games become a buffet of fan service for all different generations of DC, or Marvel, or anybody else, because you get to pick from '66 Batman and really pay homage with having Adam West, and '66 Batman generation."
