Frequently Asked Questions
Question: How many playable DC Comics characters are in the game?
Answer: There are 150+ playable characters in the game. That is, if you’re not counting the 40+ downloadable content (DLC) characters announced so far. You can also save up multiple custom characters using the game’s character creator.
Question: How to buy characters?
Answer: This can only be done while you’re in Free Play mode (it doesn’t work in Story mode). The “switching characters” button is the same as the “transforming characters” button (that you use to turn into Lego Big Figures). You can only buy a character that you have already unlocked or found the Character Token of, by holding the Triangle button on PlayStation systems / holding the Y button on Xbox systems / holding the X button on Nintendo systems, to bring up the character menu. When you see that character menu, then select the black silhouette of the character you want from the grid and select “Buy” to make it available for you to play with in Free Play mode.
Important Note: Unlocking characters usually involves completing campaign missions, bonus- or side missions, or finding their token hidden throughout the overworld HUB area map. To find out how to get all the characters in the game, please look at our “Lego Batman 3 Unlockable Characters Guide“.
Question: How to switch characters?

Brick Interaction Tips:
– You need heat-based attacks like Superman & Martian Manhunter’s heat/laser vision to destroy Gold LEGO objects.
– Batman’s Power Suit can destroy Silver LEGO with his rockets. Same for anyone who can fire rockets.
– Batman’s Sensor Suit has his green X-ray vision (not to mention invisibility stealth mode) that will show you the way when the path is unclear! Which allows him to locate hidden LEGO bricks required for advancing the gameplay in levels.
– Super strength characters can destroy or manipulate LEGO objects that normal characters can’t.
– The “big-figs” like Solomon Grundy and Killer Croc can destroy or manipulate objects in ways even different than characters with normal super strength. For example, Solomon Grundy can dive into swamp spots to find hidden items.
– A characters with mind control like Martian Manhunter can take over enemy characters in levels to move them around to do your bidding, like moving LEGO objects that are normally out of your reach.
– Cyborg’s Sonar Suit can shatter Blue LEGO Glass. To use, hold the X button on Xbox systems / hold the Square button on PlayStation systems / hold the Y button on Nintendo systems.
