Next time you use Waze, you can make Batman give you directions.
Starting Monday, the app will get a Gotham City makeover until Oct. 31. Google-owned Waze is honoring 81 years of Batman with new "characters" and voices.
Previous fictional and real celebrities that have appeared on Waze: DJ Khaled and Sesame Street's Cookie Monster.
If you're feeling more Edward Nigma than Bruce Wayne, the villainous Riddler is also available in the app. While driving IRL, you can either see the Batmobile or Riddler Racer show up on the map.
Waze's Batman tribute comes right after the first trailer for The Batmanwas released. The movie isn't expected in theaters until October 2021, but it's worth watching for a sneak peek of Paul Dano as the Riddler.
