It also has a number of casual online titles in development for younger players at a new Montreal studio, based on various Warner brands.
The first Lego Batman title launched back in 2008, picking up a very respectable 8/10 from Eurogamer's Dan Whitehead.
The publisher has had a pretty impressive 2011 so far, with Mortal Kombat, hit downloadable RPG Bastion and Batman: Arkham City all under its belt.
