All the lego mechanics you know and love are here and very familiar, the studio took a different direction with the open world this time around, instead of an big open world as seen in Lego marvel and Lego batman 2 they have set up a number of hubs for you to explore, more specifically all the lantern worlds and the moon this sounds like a good idea on paper but was poorly executed.
    All the hub worlds are round not flat like we are used to so it is hard sometimes to navigate through the terrain the camera jumps all over the place and can get really frustrating, the only hub world that is flat is the green lantern hub but there is very little to do there, i would have preferred all the hubs flat instead of round it get so game breaking that i have to put down the controller and think what to do, it shouldn't be that bad but this is the end game content after you beat the story and you will have a difficult time but you can play it.

    There are little bug here and there but nothing game breaking all and all pretty good. with over 150 character to play as i couldn't be happier, yet the horrible hub worlds are holding back what could have been the best Lego game to date, hopefully in the future they will go back to a big open world like in the past    … Expand

    This is a very funny and fun game. The only problem I have is that it's not quite as good as Lego Batman 2 but it is better then Lego Batman 1.
    7/10 + TROY FREAKING BAKER

    Could be fun for kids but quite boring after like an hour, but worth a shot if you like LEGO's.

    This game has better mechanics than Marvel Lego, for sure. What has disapppointed my son is the fact there is no city hub to relax and have fun using heroes.

    That's a shame.

    A good lego Game, but after Lego Batman 2 & Lego Marvel with their great hub worlds and things too do after the story, LB3 falls. rather than a big hub world that makes you feel like in manhattan or gotham, here you have small parted sections from the dc universe. there are also planet hubs that can give you an headache and make you stop playing. but i will say that the story isA good lego Game, but after Lego Batman 2 & Lego Marvel with their great hub worlds and things too do after the story, LB3 falls. rather than a big hub world that makes you feel like in manhattan or gotham, here you have small parted sections from the dc universe. there are also planet hubs that can give you an headache and make you stop playing. but i will say that the story is entertaining, the new costumes swap is really helpfull and some minikits are very creative.… Expand

    As far as lego games go, it's not very intriguing and a tacked on 'open world' available at the end sours the experience. 55/100

    Muito divertido e engraçado, com uma dublagem em PT-BR maravilhosa, e um enredo muito criativo. Porem não inova muito em relação o outros jogos da serie LEGO.

    The sequel to Lego Batman 2 delivers new features and focuses on space travel so much that it forgot how to make good hub areas.

Surprisingly all the characters in the roster are unique and are fun to use, also the vehicles available are quite unique as well. The levels are good at times and questionable at times. The story is really confusing because you don’t really get which team are the hero’s with or even the villains. Ok let’s talk about the worst part of this game, the hub areas. They are in space they are supposed be fun but no. They all feel the same they changed the color of each plant, and that’s a bummer for a 2014 Lego game, lego the hobbits had a better hub area. However this game does support and spread the old power up element from the old game. You can change the characters costumes, and this time it’s not only Batman and Robin but Joker lex cyborg and so many others. This is great because it gives more variety to the game. Overall Lego Batman 3 Beyond Gotham Delivers new things and gameplay
    But fails at the hub area department that it’s hard to ignore
    (2/5 Play It If Your A Fan Of The Series)    … Expand

    Не смотря на возросшие возможности графики, мне кажется, что эта игра немного хуже своего предшественника - сиквела. И я даже не заню почему, может история и юмор?

    This was a game that you were hyped up for, but when you got it, you realize your hopes were a bit too high. This game is good, well made, and no bugs. It's just that it's a normal, mediocre Lego game.

    This is by far one of the most disappointing Lego games ever made. Horrible open world, small choice of characters, etc. My son, Landen, has been struggling to beat the game because the levels were poorly designed and "hard". The whole story is a dumpster fire and VERY repetitive and does not live up to the success that the two Batman games had prior.

The whole story is a dumpster fire and VERY repetitive and does not live up to the success that the two Batman games had prior. This is a very poorly and rushed game and I do not recommend buying it unless you're willing to waste your time playing with overdesigned characters, boring and unsatisfying story, and bland open worlds. The only acceptable thing with this game is some of the Character packs, but sadly to unlock these you must pay real money which takes the fun away considering that most of these characters are better than the characters provided throughout the storymode. I also appreciate the talented Voice Actors from Lego Batman 2 coming back to reprise their roles.

    Overall, this game tries to be something it's not and is not a very good game. Do not buy for a kid, or for yourself unless you want to be stuck doing something useless for hours a day.    … Expand

    The third Lego Batman game is a copy-paste from other Lego games made by Traveller's Tales. At this point it's getting pretty frustrating to see the exactly same game with new characters and some minor tweaks. This isn't a bad game, I've just seen this same stuff so many times before.

    More of the same yet again, but the developers’ obvious love for the DC Universe easily spreads even to someone who’s not into comic books very much. [01/2015, p.82]

    More of the same only with added super pals, but the formula is still well-executed and enjoyable. [Feb 2015, p.65]
