How Bat-Symbols Work

Bat-Symbols are golden coins featuring Batman’s logo. You collect them just by touching them. While some players call them Bat Coins, this guide will refer to them as Bat-Symbols, which is the name used within the game.

Bat-Symbols are trickier to collect than other items in the game because they don’t appear on the map once you’ve activated the towers. You’ll have to use coordinates and surrounding landmarks to locate all 50 of them.

You only need to find 25 Bat-Symbols to earn the “The idea was to be a symbol” achievement. However, if you want to complete the T-Rex statue in the Batcave, you’ll need to collect all 50.
