LEGO Batman: Legacy of the Dark Knight passes 950,000 Steam wishlists

LEGO Batman: Legacy of the Dark Knight is approaching launch with serious PC interest. GamingBolt reports that the game now has 950,000 wishlists on Steam ahead of its May 22 release. That is a huge number for a LEGO licensed title and shows that Batman still has enormous pull when paired with an accessible action-adventure format. The game has already been drawing attention because it looks more ambitious than a standard LEGO retelling. Previews have highlighted Arkham-style combat, an open-world Gotham, local co-op, multiple playable Bat-family characters and a story that remixes major Batman eras. For players, the wishlist number matters because it suggests the game could become one of Warner Bros.’ biggest 2026 launches if it converts well. The danger is expectation. A big wishlist count does not guarantee sales or satisfaction, especially after some Xbox players briefly accessed the game early due to a preload mistake. Still, the Dark Knight clearly has momentum going into launch week.
