Lego Batman Legacy of the Dark Knight cheat codes are something that many players expect to find, and while there are elements that make the game easier, ultimately cheats are something that are handled differently a bit differently in Lego Batman. The game as a whole seems to be taking itself slightly more seriously than previous Lego titles - at least on a gameplay level - and that means some changes in the way that cheats and codes are being handled, as I'll explain below.

No, Lego Batman Legacy of the Dark Knight does not have cheat codes or traditional cheats like you would've seen in previous Lego games, such as the Lego Star Wars Skywalker Saga cheats and codes, but it does have some similar gameplay features that can confuse the issue.

For example, there are Red Bricks in Lego Batman Legacy of the Dark Knight. However, these do not provide cheats or gameplay modifiers this time around, but instead provide cosmetic modifiers that allow you to change the colors of your suits and vehicles.

There's also the option given on the main menu to redeem codes in Lego Batman Legacy of the Dark Knight. However, these are not cheat codes, as explained in the attached guide, but instead are used to get additional skins and in-game rewards if you obtain those codes from tie-in products.
