The Villy Awards is the closing cutscene of the Mayhem Collection, the downloadable add-on for LEGO Batman: Legacy of the Dark Knight. It doubles as the trigger for Villified, the achievement listed simply as “Attend the Villy Awards.” There is no hidden collectible to hunt and no boss gate. You reach it by clearing the add-on’s five main objective types as Joker and Harley Quinn.
Quick answer: Complete all five main objectives — Bat-signals, clowns, jack-in-the-boxes, radio signals and fireworks. The Villy Awards cutscene plays automatically, and Villified unlocks once you land back in the hub.
The five objectives that trigger the Villy Awards
The Mayhem Collection’s story runs on five objective types spread across Gotham. Finish every one of them and the game takes over. Order does not matter, but none can be skipped.
- Bat-signals
- Clowns
- Jack-in-the-boxes
- Radio signals
- Fireworks
Objectives can be rerolled at the Planning Table, which is also what the separate “Part of the Plan” achievement tracks. Rerolling changes the assignment in front of you, not the five categories you still have to clear.
What happens in the Villy Awards cutscene
The scene opens on the Monarch Theatre, where a TV announcer sets up a live broadcast of an awards show for Gotham’s criminal class. Talk show host David Endocrine, the same presenter players meet earlier in the game, runs the ceremony from the stage.
The camera settles on a room full of LEGO villains at banquet tables as Endocrine welcomes them to the night’s proceedings.
Three awards are handed out before the night falls apart.
| Award | Winner |
|---|---|
| Biggest Impact | Poison Ivy |
| Excellence in Recruitment | Hench Master |
| Best Partners in Crime | Harley Quinn and Joker |
Poison Ivy goes first, collecting a trophy wrapped in vines for Biggest Impact.
Hench Master follows with Excellence in Recruitment, a nod to the crew-building systems the add-on is built around.
Endocrine then reads the nominees for Best Partners in Crime and calls Harley Quinn and Joker to the stage. The pair collect a golden trophy and talk through their own highlights.
Batman, Robin and Batgirl smash through the theatre’s glass ceiling mid-speech, scattering the guests.
Batman closes the scene with a line about crime not paying while Joker and Harley, undeterred, debate Tuesday lasagna night as the handcuffs go on.
How to confirm Villified unlocked
When the cutscene ends, control returns with a drop into the stud pit in the hub. The achievement pops at that moment, and the add-on’s story is marked complete at the same time. If you are still in the hub with objectives left on the board, the ceremony has not been reached yet.
Villified is one of the rarest achievements in the pack, with an unlock rate well under one percent, so do not expect a friends-list comparison to tell you whether you have it. Check the achievement list directly.
Where Villified sits in the Mayhem Collection achievement list
The add-on ships with 12 achievements. Most are grind or purchase targets you can chip away at while working through the five objective types, which means Villified tends to land last by default.

| Maximum Security | Break out of Arkham |
| Absolute Mayhem | Complete 5 Mayhem Runs |

How to access the Mayhem Collection
The Villy Awards only exists inside the Mayhem Collection, the first post-launch add-on for LEGO Batman: Legacy of the Dark Knight from TT Games. It arrived on September 18, 2026 and is included at no extra cost with the Deluxe Edition. Alongside the story mission, it adds Joker and Harley Quinn as playable characters, Mayhem Mode, extra cosmetics and a new Batmobile.
The base game is out on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X and S, and PC, with the Nintendo Switch 2 version launched on the same day the add-on went live. Owners of the standard edition need to buy the pack before any of its objectives, or the ceremony they lead to, will appear.
The award ceremony itself is a nod outside the game. Harley and Poison Ivy attend a Villy Awards in the third season of HBO’s Harley Quinn animated series after a Best Couple nomination, and Harley’s outfit from that ceremony turns up among the add-on’s costumes.
