Batman: Arkham Knight’s PC patch finally coming in a few weeks
PC fans are finally getting some relief from their janky Batman woes. Back in June, Batman: Arkham Knight released on PC, PS4 and Xbox One but the PC version was in a terrible state which forced the title to be recalled from retailers. We are going into our third month of the game’s release and still no significant fixes have been made to the game. Warner Bros finally updated fans today by letting us know a patch that fixes a ton of issues with the game is in testing phase and will be released within the next couple of weeks, along with the game being available for purchase again.
