Batman: Arkham Knight released a short while ago for PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC.  The console versions of the game seem fine, at least our review of the PlayStation 4 version was. Though not all was right with Batman: Arkham Knight, according to those who purchased on PC.
Steam users flooded the game’s reviews with negativity toward the game, largely due to crashes and a 30fps lock. Â Rocksteady has since issued a response to these complaints on the wbgames forums.
“We’re aware that some users are reporting issues with the PC version of Batman: Arkham Knight. Â This is something that Rocksteady takes very seriously. Â We are working closely with our external PC development partner to make sure these issues get resolved as quickly as possible.”
No time horizon was given for a potential patch, and what issues that patch would address. Â Shame for PC players, Arkham Knight is by most accounts a fantastic game. Â The PlayStation 4 version, which most reviewers played, currently holds a 91 on Metacritic.
Update: Â WB has offered Batman: Arkham Knight PC owners a workaround for the time being that involves mostly all of the customizable settings of the game to their “minimum or OFF” settings. Â Doing that should provide players with a 30fps capped experience. Â This workaround is designed for players with minimum to recommended spec systems. Â The developers say that they are working towards a solution for players with more capable PCs.
