Why is LEGO Batman: Legacy of the Dark Knight releasing later on Nintendo Switch 2?

There are likely to be a number of reasons that LEGO Batman: Legacy of the Dark Knight didn’t release day and date with the other versions, but the biggest culprit is almost certainly Unreal Engine 5, the tech powering the game.

There have been a few Unreal Engine 5 games released on Nintendo Switch 2, including Epic Games’ own Fortnite, but they are all compromised in one way or another when compared with versions on other platforms.

Developers TT Games may just have needed extra time to optimise the game into a playable state. With Grand Theft Auto 6 coming out later this year, they may have opted to stagger the release in order to give it as wide a berth as possible, as most PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series players’ attention will be elsewhere come November.

There have been key optimisations made to Unreal Engine 5 in recent times, specifically made with handheld gaming consoles, namely the Nintendo Switch 2 and a potential upcoming PS6 handheld, in mind.

This optimisation, coming with Unreal Engine 5.8, is known as Global Illumination using Irradiance Fields with Probe Occlusion, and reportedly runs twice as fast as the High Lumen setting, whilst looking much better than the old medium Lumen setting.
