LEGO Batman 2 adds some DC Heroes

Warner Bros. Interactive has officially announced LEGO Batman 2: DC Super Heroes. The set was revealed by images inside LEGO toy sets last month, but WB has now confirmed that the game is set to be released later this year.

According to WB, "In LEGO Batman 2, the Dynamic Duo of Batman and Robin join other famous super heroes from the DC Universe including Superman, Wonder Woman and Green Lantern to save Gotham City from destruction at the hands of the notorious villains Lex Luthor and the Joker."

"LEGO Batman 2: DC Super Heroes further extends and combines both the Batman and LEGO videogame experiences to create very fun gameplay," said Samantha Ryan, SVP of Development and Production at WB. "Fans of all ages are going to enjoy the action and light hearted humor that TT Games and LEGO provide."

The original LEGO Batman has sold over eleven million units across all platforms. LEGO Batman 2 will be released on Xbox 360, PS3, Wii, PC, DS, 3DS and Vita in Summer 2012.
