Still playing your PC copy of Batman Arkham Knight? We have some good news for you.
The latest patch was released, bringing a host of changes and improvements, but generally making the PC version infinitely more playable than it was before.
We will share full patch notes below, but this includes the mandatory stability and bug fixes, fixes to mouse and keyboard controls in all parts of the game, some graphical fixes, and the addition of some DLC. The Classic Harley Quinn, Arkham Knight for AR Challenges, Red Hood and Harley Quinn story packs, and December DLC have all been added in.
At least one fan confirms that the changes allow high end PCs to run the game at maximum settings, meaning this version can now exceed the console versions, at least in that aspect. Some other players are still complaining about compatibility issues. Unfortunately, given the reputation the game has earned, it will be hard to tell how far along Rocksteady has gone in fixing the PC version’s issues until it’s 100 % fixed, which may never happen.
Do you think Rocksteady will exceed expectations and fix everything that plagues the PC version of Batman Arkham Knight? Share your thoughts with us in the comments and check out patch notes below.
