LEGO Batman: Legacy of the Dark Knight has an abundance of easter eggs, but none are as cute (and pettable) as Ace the Bat-Hound, Batman's iconic canine companion who makes his LEGO debut in your Batcave. However, Ace the Bat-Hound isn't just going to appear for anyone...
There are a few requirements you need to reach to get Ace the Bat-Hound, including upgrading the Standard Edition to the Deluxe Edition. If you want to know about Ace in LEGO Batman: Legacy of the Dark Knight, read on!

To get Ace the Bat-Hound, you will be required to purchase the Deluxe Edition Upgrade. You can only get Ace the Bat-Hound if you have the Batman Beyond Pack, and it's important to know that Ace isn't playable.
How to Get Ace the Bat-Hound in LEGO Batman: Legacy of the Dark Knight
Once you have the Deluxe Edition Upgrade, you can head into your Batcave (from Chapter 2 onwards). Opposite the Gadget Upgrade Station in the Batcave, you can find a platform where you can place trophies. Approach this station and press Up on the D-Pad, and then Square/X to enter your Inventory.
Navigate to the second-to-last tab (which has a trophy icon) with R1/RB. On the first row, you can find the Bat-Hound Doghouse. Once you've selected it with X/A, you can place it anywhere on the LEGO board. Now, exit the customization menu and press Triangle/Y on the Bat-Hound Doghouse to pet and interact with Ace!
