Once the door is built, a hero comes out and you can purchase him/her. Then, you have to have the requisite number of gold bricks to build the door. These can be a little tricky to find, but they all ping on a map scan. How To Find Heroes: Heroes are behind gold doors. By way of a freebie, Brainiac is the villain associated with the remote computer located in the central park.

Defeat that villain in a brief battle and you then have the option to buy him/her. Go to the base of those beacons, activate the remote satellite Bat Computer and you should get a short video clip of the nearby villain. How To Find Villains: Villains are located at the red (or blue) beacons that light up the sky in the Gotham City open world hub. It’s made obvious by the nearby character (if a Villain) appearing in a short cutscene where they taunt you to come fight them. This then unclouds the map and makes characters (like The Riddler) appear where you’re supposed to see them on their in-game location. Map Tip: To be able to scan for and see character icons on world map, you need to have activated the remote satellite / Bat Computer pad terminal nearby where you can look at the map & choose vehicles. The 10 last spots on the character select screen’s sides are for the custom characters you can make at the Batcave computer. The 10 spots at the bottom of the character select screen (which normally are invisible until unlocked) are reserved for for downloadable content (DLC) characters, which at first will only be available via pre-order, but are sure to be released in two packs sometime after release (one for 5 Heroes and one for 5 Villains). This goes especially fast if you have access to Superman in between playing levels. To unlock 50 of all 60 playable characters in the game you basically have to finish the Story Mode levels and explore Gotham City’s open world hub.
