LEGO Batman PS5 Trailer Uses ‘Kiss from a Rose’

The launch trailer for LEGO Batman: Legacy of the Dark Knight mixes gameplay and cutscenes, includes multiple Batman references and uses Seal’s ‘Kiss from a Rose.’ The PS5 game arrives May 22, 2026.

An online launch trailer for LEGO Batman: Legacy of the Dark Knight appeared ahead of the game’s May 22, 2026 PS5 release. The clip alternates direct gameplay footage with cinematic cutscenes to show combat, traversal and set-piece moments.

The trailer includes multiple nods to Batman history, featuring spoofs of well-known scenes and an Akira-style slide. Seal’s ‘Kiss from a Rose,’ which played over the end credits of the 1995 film Batman Forever, plays over sections of the trailer.

The footage highlights short combat encounters, platforming sequences and exploration, presented with a light, humorous tone consistent with past LEGO titles.

A recent hands-on preview reported positive impressions, noting the game appears likely to appeal to long-term LEGO players and Batman fans and that the trailer’s mix of references and gameplay reflects the game’s tone.

The trailer was released online weeks before the May 22 launch and uses a recognizable pop song tied to Batman’s cinematic history. The game is scheduled to arrive on PS5 on May 22, 2026.
