Stop the presses! Adam West's in it!

The LEGO series may not be the world's most innovative, but it reliably serves up a satisfying, kid-friendly portion of brick-bashing and exploration. Later this year, LEGO Batman 3: Beyond Gotham is scheduled to appear on the PlayStation 4, PlayStation 3, and Vita – and it's now been confirmed when we'll be getting our hands on it: 11th November in North America and 14th November in Europe.

The game takes the series into space, at the behest of the villainous Braniac, which is definitely uncharted territory for our blocky band of heroes. This one features more than 150 playable characters, which is more than enough to satisfy any DC Comics fan. Otherwise, it looks like more of the same from Traveller's Tales. That's not always a bad thing – we gave the last superhero entry a positive review – but if you weren't a fan of the LEGO games before, this one looks unlikely to convert you.
