Warner Bros. says that an interim patch for the troubled PC version of Batman: Arkham Knight is on the way, and should be released in the next few weeks.
It’s still being tested, but when it goes live it should improve the game’s stuttering frame rate, improve performance in general, and optimise memory usage.
”We are happy to confirm that we are now putting the first interim patch into testing,” WB says. ”If all goes well, we expect to issue the patch in the next few weeks. We’ll be sure to report back in the next two weeks on how the testing is coming along.”
Other issues currently being worked on that won’t make it into this update include the addition of DLC content and a free Photo mode.
Here’s what to expect in the upcoming patch:
• Reduced frame rate hitches
• Optimized system memory and VRAM usage
• Improved performance on all GPUs (requires the latest drivers)
o Min Spec AMD GPU is once again the Radeon HD 7870 2GB
• More Robust In-Game Settings, including:
o Added the ability to change settings for Max FPS to 30/60/90
o Added toggles for Motion Blur, Chromatic Aberration, and Film Grain
o Added a “High” Texture Resolution value
o Added Texture Filtering option
o Added an Adaptive V-Sync option (NVIDIA only)
o Added VRAM Usage Meter
o Added Mouse Sensitivity Slider & Mouse Smoothing Option
