Step-by-Step Walkthrough
Step 1: Escape the GCPD The level starts inside the GCPD. Use Batman’s Grapple Gun to reach the upper vents. You’ll need to swap to Commissioner Gordon to use his Security Clearance on the elevators. Don’t forget to smash the blue cabinets in the evidence room to find the first 3 Minikits!

Step 2: The Batpod Chase Once you hit the streets, it’s time for the Batpod. This segment is on rails. Focus on destroying the purple Joker gift boxes scattered along the road. Smashing 5 of them rewards you with a Gold Brick. Keep an eye out for the Red Brick floating near the Gotham Bank entrance—you’ll need to jump the ramp at a high speed to snag it.
Step 3: Neutralizing the Gas Canisters The Joker has hidden three gas canisters around the parade square. Use Batman’s Detective Vision to follow the green scent trails.
- Canister 1: Behind the destructible silver statue (requires Explosive Batarang).
- Canister 2: Inside the news van (requires Gordon’s tech skill).
- Canister 3: Under the main stage.
Step 4: The Joker Boss Fight To beat the Joker, wait for his float to stop and throw “Bang!” flags. Use your Batarang to hit the two gears on the side of his float. This will expose the Joker, allowing you to deal direct damage. Repeat this three times to trigger the final cutscene.
