Plot [edit]

The plot information on the overview page on the official site says, "A renowned archaeologist, Dr. Helena Sandsmark, is kidnapped, and the Young Justice team tracks a group of the Light’s most notorious villains around the globe in an effort to rescue her. But when the young heroes discover the Light is exploiting Dr. Sandsmark’s expertise to locate fragments of an ancient statue of legendary power, they must race against time to save the planet from imminent disaster."[14]

Young Justice: Legacy was originally announced to be released in February 2013, on the Nintendo DS, Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 3, Wii and Xbox 360.[15][16] The game would also feature the original lineup of characters from the first season, however after the premiere of the second season the lineup was changed.
