Introduction
Welcome to Lego Batman 2: DC Super Heroes! Just like all of the other Lego games you will need two playthroughs in order to complete them. The first playthrough will be for completing the Story Mode, while the second one will be for finding all of the collectibles (Minikits, Gold Bricks & Red Bricks).

Step 1 - Completing the Story Mode
There are a total of 15 story levels in the game, each lasting about 20+ minutes if not longer to complete. As previous Lego games, these missions are not difficult. There may be some parts where you get stuck and become clueless on how to progress through the level. If that’s the case I suggest looking up a walkthrough on YouTube to guide you through the levels. Try not to worry too much about finishing the level with a “Super Hero” status. You will be able to get all of these easily on your second playthrough if you have cheats enabled. Also try not to focus on collecting all of the mini-kits on each of the levels. As you may know from playing previous Lego games, some Minikit collectibles are only found by using certain characters. You will be able to collect all of these on your second playthrough by using Free Play. Here's a list of all story-related achievements that cannot be missed.

  • Theatrical Pursuits
  • Harboring a Criminal
  • Arkham Asylum Antics
  • Dynamic Duo
  • Asylum Assignment
  • It's A Bird... It's A Plane...
  • Chemical Crisis
  • Chemical Signature
  • Unwelcome Guests
  • Destination Metropolis
  • Research and Development
  • Down to Earth
  • Underground Retreat
  • The Next President
  • Core Instability
  • Tower Defense
  • Heroes Unite

Step 2 - Gotham City Free Roam + Collecting Gold / Red Bricks
I highly suggest doing this before you start collecting all of the mini-kits in your second playthrough. Scattered around Gotham City will be Gold and Red Bricks, Citizens in need of help, unlockable characters, Lego vehicles that you’re allowed to drive and a handful of studs to collect. 

There are a total of 250 Gold Bricks in the game. These bricks are obtained by finishing story levels, saving citizens, finding all of them in a level and finding them throughout Gotham City. Some require you to get up to certain places in the city while using Batman or Robin’s special suits. These special suits can be found at the exact location where you will be finding each Gold Brick. On the other hand there are also Red Bricks that you can collect. If you have played previous Lego Games then you should have an idea of what they are. Each Red Brick contains a cheat that you can purchase and use in the game. 

Now is also a great time to start finding and unlocking the characters. Unlockable characters can be found throughout Gotham City with a red spotlight over them. I recommend first finding and unlocking The Joker, Riddler, and Lex Luthor since you need them in order to obtain all of the red bricks throughout Gotham City. I also recommend finding the x2, x4, x6, x8 and x10 character stud cheats before purchasing any other Red Bricks (cheats). Stud multipliers add up with each enabled so by having all of them enabled you will have an x3840 bonus. This will allow you to rack up a tremendous amount of studs and will allow you to purchase anything in the game. All cheats can be selected from the Extras Menu.

After completing Step 2 you should have collected at least 200 Gold Bricks and have found at least 40 citizens. The rest of the Gold Bricks can be found by collecting all of the minikit figures and citizens in each level, which is what we will be doing in Step 3.Here's a list of the achievements you should have been able to collect during Step 2.

  • Inferior Machines
  • Test Hero
  • Subway Hero
  • Green Lantern's Light
  • Halfway Through
  • Extra! Extra!
  • Kal-El Last Son of Krypton
  • Super-Villain
  • Gorilla Thriller
  • Justice League
  • The House of Luthor

Step 3 - Collecting the Minikits & Mop Up
Now is the time to make your second playthrough of Story Mode in order to collect all of the Minikits. Each level can be replayed by entering the computer terminal inside the Batcave. Remember that you must select the Free Play option when choosing the level you want to play. You're also going to want to turn on the cheats "Gold Brick Finder" and "Peril Finder". This way you will be able to locate the citizens and minikit collectibles a lot easier. If you have been following the Roadmap then you should already have these cheats unlocked. You will also need to get a "Super Hero" status in each of these levels. If you turn on all of your stud multipliers then you shouldn't have a problem.

Conclusion
Lego Batman 2 is probably one of the most fun Lego games to date. Easy enough to complete while having tons of fun attempting to do so.

There are 37 achievements with a total of 1000 points

  • Climb to the top of Wayne tower while riding a Gorilla and playing as a female character.

    If you have completed the game already then you should have Wonder Woman unlocked in order to use for this achievement. If you do not then you could free roam Gotham City and start unlocking the characters. 

    Gorilla’s can be found in the cages at the Gotham Zoo, where you will need to use a remote terminal to open up the cage. Choose a girl character and jump onto the Gorilla by pressing . Now you’re going to want to set a marker at the Wayne Tower, which can be found at the south part of the map near the bottom of the bridge in the middle. It’s the tallest building in the game so it won't be very hard to miss. Once you’re there, find a side of the building where it will let you climb up with the Gorilla. The achievement will unlock once you’ve reached the very top.

    Refer to the video below if you prefer a visual guide:

  • Defeat Zod as Superman

    Zod can be found and purchased at the very bottom part of the map. Refer to the picture below to see the exact location of where he can be found.

    After you have unlocked Zod, switch to him by holding  with one character, then switch to the other character and choose Superman. Simply attack Zod with Superman until the achievement unlocks.

  • Defeat Sinestro as Green Lantern

    Sinestro can be found and purchased for 125,000 studs near the Central Metro Station. Refer to the picture below to see the exact location where he can be found. Green Lantern will be unlocked with natural progression of the Story Mode. 

    After you have unlocked Sinestro, switch to him by holding  with one character, then switch to the other character and choose Green Lantern. Simply attack Sinestro with Green Lantern until the achievement unlocks.

  • Fly with Superman

    This achievement is story-related and cannot be missed.

    You will get your first chance to use Superman during Story Level 5 (Chemical Crisis). Simply double tap  in order to fly. You will need to use Superman anyway during the levels in order to get past various obstacles. Remember that there are a lot of studs scattered up in the air that only Superman would be able to get. 

  • With Brainiac, defeat any LexBot

    Brainiac can be found and purchased for 500,000 studs in the middle of Gotham City. Refer to the picture below to see the exact location where he can be found.

    After you have purchased and unlocked Brainiac you will need to find a LexBot. LexBot’s can be found by roaming around Gotham City or playing specific levels in Story Mode. You could always choose to use the cheat (W49CSJ) to have him unlocked. While roaming around Gotham City, hold  to choose the LexBot character, and then switch to your other character and select Brainiac. Simply smash the LexBot up with Brainiac until you unlock the achievement. 

  • Unlock all female heroes and villains. (Single Player Only)

    This will be one of the last achievements that you will unlock since the last character is Supergirl. Supergirl is unlocked after you have found 250 Gold Bricks and will be the last character door on your map. Each hero and villain will need to be purchased throughout Gotham City. The villains will be represented by a red spotlight and their face on the map, while the heroes will need to be purchased by going to the doors on your map.

    • Harley Quinn
    • Poison Ivy
    • Catwoman
    • Wonder Woman
    • Hawkgirl
    • Supergirl
    • Batgirl
    • Black Canary
    • Huntress
  • Obtain more than 10,100,000,000 Studs (Single Player Only)

    Obtaining more than 10,100,000,000 is extremely easy as long as you have all of the stud multipliers enabled. I unlocked this when going back to collect all of the minikit figures in each level. Just make sure you go into the Extras Menu and enable every one which will lead to a x3840 stud bonus. 

  • Do a finishing move

    In order to perform a finishing move you will need to obtain at least a 4x combo. Basically what you're going to want to do is get in a melee fight with up to 5 or 6 enemies, then once you have killed several of them you will see a  above the enemy's head. Press this to perform a finishing move and the achievement will unlock.

  • Use the Gotham City Metro

    There are a total of three metro stations in Gotham City. One at the North side of the map, one in the central, and lastly one at the South part of the city. These Metro stations are a little to the right of the map and will be in a dome shape. Head over to any of the metro stations located in the city and walk inside. The achievement will unlock while you’re being transported to the other metro station. 

  • Unlock all the Bosses (Single Player Only)

    Bosses are unlocked by going to their location in Gotham City and defeating them. Their locations are represented by a red spotlight on the map. Each time you have discovered a boss their face will be shown on your map. You will need to defeat them then purchase them in order for them to be unlocked. A list of bosses can be found below:

    • Two-Face
    • Harley Quinn
    • The Riddler
    • Lex Luthor
    • The Joker
    • The Penguin
    • Poison Ivy
    • Catwoman
    • Bane
    • Killer Croc
    • Scarecrow
    • Mister Freeze
    • Sinestro
    • Captain Boomerang
    • Mad Hatter
    • Brainiac
    • General Zod
    • Hush
    • Ra's Al Ghul
    • Man-Bat
    • Clayface
    • Killer Moth
  • Complete the Bonus level

    The bonus level can be found in the Gotham Park of Gotham City, which is located in the center of your map. The bonus level will be shown by a large Gold Brick and will require 175 Gold Bricks in order to be opened. The objective in this bonus level is to reach one million studs by destroying everything that you can in the Lego world of Gotham. You will be allowed to use the following characters:

    • Batman
    • Robin
    • The Penguin
    • Clark Kent
    • Superman. 

    There are quite a few tricky spots in this bonus level which could leave you clueless for hours, but I'm going to do my best to explain to you where they are and how to complete them.

    1. In order to get Superman you will need to reach the third part of the bonus level, which is all the way to the right of the map. There will be a telephone booth as soon as you walk across the bridge. Simply walk into the booth with Clark Kent and you will be changed into Superman.
    2. "Purple and dark blue statues, how do I destroy them???" - This may be the trickiest part of the level, but here's how to destroy them... You're first going to want to have access to Superman. Once you have him you will need to go to the middle part of the level near the green and purple paint pumps. There will be a small platform that is sticking out of the water. What you're going to want to do is fly up there with Superman and stand on the pole. The pole will start to go down and you will be allowed to drain the paint. You will notice the Joker's Mech coming out of the green paint. That is how you will be destroying the purple and dark blue statues at the end of the level.
      *Once you have used the Mech to bring up the Wayne Tower, fly up there with Superman and you will notice a couple of purple studs.* See Image
    3. When you're riding the Metro to the other side of the level you will notice a few purple studs outside. There is a terminal to the right of the Metro that you will need to use in order for you to open the doors. You can also destroy the seats inside the metro for some extra studs!
    4. You can destroy the Church! This will provide you with a tons of coins so make sure you do it! You will have to use Superman or Clark Kent in order to take it down. You can also use Batman's suit which has explosives to blow it up.

  • Unlock all Justice League characters (Single Player Only)

    *It's recommended that you unlock these characters after you have accumulated enough studs by using the multiplier bricks.*

    Most of these characters will be unlocked with progression of the story, while the others will need to be found throughout Gotham City. These unlockable characters can be located by pressing  to scan your map. Their location is represented by the yellow, door looking objects. Some doors will require a certain amount of Gold Bricks in order for you to open them, and the characters will need to be bought in order for you to unlock them.

    The Justice Leagues characters that will need to be unlocked:

    • Batman
    • Superman
    • Green Lantern
    • Cyborg
    • The Flash
    • Wonder Woman
    • Martian Manhunter
    • Aquaman
  • Play a level in co-op

    Go ahead and plug in a second controller and press start whenever you are in the game. You do not need to have a friend with you to play since you can easily get this by yourself. Simply press start near the end of a mission and you will get the achievement after completion. You can “Drop Out” out of any game by pressing Start > Drop Out. 

    This must be played in 'Story Mode', 'Free Play' will NOT work.

  • Rescue all Citizens in Peril (Single Player Only)

    There are a total of 50 citizens that need to be found throughout the game. Some are found by roaming around Gotham City while others are found during story levels. To be exact, 15 citizens can be found during Story levels(15 Levels), while the rest of them (35) can be found in Gotham City free roam. Each citizen will require a special character in order to rescue. I recommend attempting to save the citizens that are in story levels during your second playthrough. This way you will have all of the characters unlocked in order to rescue the citizens.

    An easy way to determine where a citizen is located is by using the cheat "Peril Finder". This is collected when searching for all of the red bricks in the game and could be very useful. Similar to the Minikit and Brick locators, the Peril Finder will bring up a purple arrow to show where each citizen is located throughout the levels and Gotham City.

    To determine which levels that you have already found a citizen in is by looking at your map. When going to select a story mission you will notice that there will be a face in the bottom-right hand of the screen. If the face has a happy smile then you have already found them in that level. If the face has a sad face then that means that you still need to rescue him in that level.

  • Get Super Hero in all levels (Single Player Only)

    In order to get a "Super Hero" status in each level you will need to fill the bar at the top of the screen with yellow. Each stud you collect will keep increasing the bar. This is pretty easy by just playing the levels as long as you destroy everything, or it can be extremely easy by using the stud multipliers (x2, x4, x6, x8, x10). These multipliers can all be enabled at once and will turn into a x3840 bonus for each stud you collect.

    Stud Multiplier cheats are earned by finding and purchasing the Red Bricks in the game.

    Use these 'Cheat Codes' if you would like to see a list of cheats that can be used in the game.

  • Unlock all characters (Single Player Only)

    There are a total of 50 characters included in the game. Some will be unlocked via story completion, while others will need to be bought at various locations throughout Gotham City. Some characters can also be unlocked by using cheat codes. Please see the 'Cheat Codes' thread for a comprehensive list.

    Unlockable characters are shown on the map as tiny, yellow doors and will require a certain amount of gold bricks in order to be opened. This will be one of your last achievements as the last character (Supergirl) is unlocked after you've reached 250 gold bricks. She will be found near the Gotham Park and will be the last door you will see on your map.

  • Use all the Minikit vehicles

    There are 15 Minikit vehicles that you will need to use in order to unlock this achievement. Each vehicle is unlocked after collecting all of the minikits in a given level. There will be five land vehicles, five air vehicles, and five water/sea vehicles with each of them requiring you to be at certain computer terminals in order to have access. 

    You will need to hop into each vehicle in order for the vehicle to be marked as "used". The achievement will unlock upon jumping it to the last vehicle.

    See the Lego Batman 2: Minikit Guide for more help.

  • Test a custom character

    In order to create a custom character you will need to be inside the BatCave. Upon entering the Batcave turn left and you will see two Batman symbols on a wall. Head over there and step on the button to create a custom character. The achievement will unlock after you select “Use Current Character”.

    If you do not want to create a custom character, you can always bring up the character selection by holding , and choosing one of the custom characters silhouettes to the right or left of the menu.

    You are first allowed to free roam Gotham City after completing level 4. This is where you will be able to switch to characters that you've unlocked or created.

  • Collect all the red bricks (Single Player Only)

    There are a total of 20 Red Bricks that can all be found throughout Gotham City. Red Bricks are the “cheats” in the game and will need to be opened with The Joker, Riddler, or Lex Luthor. They can be found by opening up your map and scanning the area. Each red circle on the map represents a red brick. Some will be hiding up on rooftops while other will be in corners on the ground and will require one of the listed characters above to be opened.

    Please see bLaKgRaVy's Red Brick Locations - Written Guide

    If you would like a video guide for all of the Multiplier bricks:

  • Get 100% (Single Player Only)

    In order to fully 100% the game you will need to do each of the following:

    • Find and purchase all Red Bricks (see Extra! Extra!)
    • Find and collect all Gold Bricks (see City Slicker)
    • Find, unlock and purchase all characters in the game (see Team Building)
    • Find, unlock and purchase all vehicles in the game

    See The End achievement description.

  • Collect all the gold bricks (Single Player Only)

    Gold bricks can be collected by doing several things:

    • Completing every Story Mode level (15)
    • Collecting all 10 Minikits in each level (15) (see Minikit Hero)
    • Rescuing all Citizens in Peril (50) (see My Hero)
    • Earning “Super Hero” status in each level (15) (see Super Hero)
    • Unlock and complete the Bonus Level (1) (see Toy Gotham)
    • Finding them around Gotham City

    This achievement can be extremely time consuming since most Gold Bricks are found by roaming around Gotham City. Gold Bricks can be located by opening up your map and pressing  to scan the area. Some are collected by using Batman or Robin to get up to the brick, while others will require you to save citizens and to complete vehicle checkpoints. Each citizen that you save will earn yourself one gold brick, which nets you 50 gold bricks in total for saving all of the citizens in the game. Gold Bricks are also earned by collecting all of the minikit figurines in a given level.
