About LEGO DC Super-Villains
LEGO DC Super-Villains is an action-adventure from TT Games and Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment, released on 16 October 2018 for Windows, with a macOS version by Feral Interactive. Its motto says it all: it’s good to be bad. For the first time in the LEGO DC series, the spotlight falls on the bad guys. You embark on an all-new DC adventure in which the goal is to become the best villain the universe has ever seen, unleashing mischievous antics and wreaking havoc in an action-packed, humour-filled story.
The plot begins with a shock. The Justice League has disappeared, leaving the protection of Earth to their counterparts from another world, who proclaim themselves the Justice Syndicate. These strange, wannabe superheroes seem too good to be true, and it falls to you and a crazy group of misfits to uncover their real intentions. Along the way you are joined by renowned DC super-villains such as the Joker, Harley Quinn, Lex Luthor and countless others from the Injustice League, each bringing their own powers and brand of chaos to the mission.
At the heart of the game is your own creation. You design an all-new super-villain from scratch, choosing their look, colours and powers, and you play as this character throughout the story. As the adventure unfolds your villain gains new abilities, so the newcomer grows from a rookie into a feared member of the gang. The roster of playable characters is huge, covering famous faces and obscure picks from decades of DC comics, and switching between them lets you combine abilities to solve puzzles, smash through obstacles and reach hidden areas.
Set in an open world within the DC universe, the game lets you roam iconic locations such as Gotham City and Metropolis, find collectibles, take on side missions and cause plenty of LEGO-style mayhem between story chapters. Everything can be played with a friend on the same screen in drop-in, drop-out split-screen co-op. The trademark LEGO humour, slapstick action and brick-built destruction keep the tone light. The game is rated 16 (FPB 13; strictest official rating applied).
