Fan-favorite villain The Batman Who Laughs is getting his very own board game.
The Batman Who Laughs Rising is an upcoming board game from The Op that pits the greatest superheroes of the DCU against the alternate universe villain and his evil forces. The multiverse is threatened when The Batman Who Laughs and the Dark Knights from the Dark Multiverse come to spread darkness. Players team up with Batman, Wonder Woman, Hawkgirl or Green Lantern in the cooperative card and dice game to make sure the villains don't succeed in their plan to take over Gotham City.
Some of these evil versions of Batman include the Merciless, the Dawnbreaker and the Murder Machine from the limited series Dark Nights: Metal, which are based on Wonder Woman, Green Lantern and Cyborg, respectively.
One to four players battle it out with assists from trusted allies, like Cyborg, the Flash and Harley Quinn. They each have their own specialties and the game includes a custom full-color, sculpted figure of the Batman Who Laughs with his flock of Evil Robins.
The Batman Who Laughs first appeared in the comic book event Dark Nights: Metal when Batman discovers that the Dark Multiverse exists. Seven evil versions of himself known as the Dark Knights come through to the positive multiverse and raise hell for the superheroes.
The Batman Who Laughs Rising comes out fall 2020 and will retail at $49.99.
