Nightwing’s 14 Costumes in LEGO Batman: Legacy of the Dark Knight – How to Unlock Each Skin

LEGO Batman: Legacy of the Dark Knight features an impressive 14 Nightwing costumes, with 10 available in the base game and 4 locked behind DLC packs.

3. Disco Nightwing (80s Discowing)
   Found as a hidden collectible in a disco-themed challenge hub (unlocks after completing Chapter 4). Look for the glowing “boogie” marker in the open world.

DLC Nightwing Costumes (4 Skins)

These require the corresponding DLC packs (included in Deluxe Edition or sold separately):

11. Arkham Nightwing — Unlocked via the Arkham Trilogy Pack (available at launch).
12. Batman Beyond Nightwing — Part of the Batman Beyond Pack.
13. Party Music / Disco Variant — Included in the Party Music Pack.

General Tips for Unlocking Suits Faster

• Explore the open-world Gotham and complete side challenges — many Nightwing suits are tied to collectibles like comic pages, minikits, or character-specific missions.
• Check the Batcave Suit Vault regularly. Many costumes become purchasable with studs after certain story milestones.
• Replay story missions in Free Play mode with Nightwing to access locked areas and collectibles.
• Sign up for a free WB Games account for bonus content (though this primarily unlocks a Golden Age Batsuit, it may grant minor bonuses across characters).
• No microtransactions — everything is earnable through gameplay.

Switching costumes is instant in the character customization menu at the Batcave or during Free Play. Each skin has minor visual differences in gadgets and animations but retains the same escrima stick combat style.
