Gotham Knights was amongst the releases of 2022 and 2023 that could have been more stable at launch, with several issues. The absence of a performance mode limited the FPS to below 30.
This issue was fixed with a patch that optimized the CPU utilization. Since much grappling and swinging were involved, it was a very CPU-intensive game, and fixing the shader issues stabilized the FPS to above 70.
Another new update to Gotham Knights was dropped by the developers that fixed bugs and introduced new content/features, including the Heroic Assault: The Kelvin Incident, Mythic Gears, New raid drop materials, new suit transmog, and four batcycle transmogs. Many new accessibility features were added, and stability and optimization issues were fixed.
The most appealing update for fans is the new raid – The Heroic Assault: The Kelvin Incident. This is a 15-floor raid available in the new game plus or after unlocking the raid area and defeating all the side villain missions. This ensures players still have something new after completing the main storyline.
Mythic Gears are also introduced, a new tier of more robust gear. The catch is that they drop only during raids. Besides this, there will be new materials that will drop from the raid.
A new suit transmog and four new batcycle transmogs can be unlocked along with new stronger enemies. For the console, there is controller remapping. This includes buttons that need to be held down and can be changed to a toggle.
The game supports your device’s built-in screen reader for all text and specific menus. There is improved screen reader support in areas where it existed, and text-to-speech is available in English.
Regarding the PC and other devices, support is implemented for the Steam Deck keyboard and dynamic cloud saves. It also fixes to draw distance and shadow casting when using higher FOV values.
Texture streaming fix for objects in the Heroic Assault levels. XeSS has been upgraded to version 1.1. Red Hood Mystical Leap should behave properly while playing at a higher FPS. A fix was also introduced for kicking users in Steam-EPIC cross play matches.
Several UI changes are also mentioned. Stability and optimization are also improved, wherein the PS5 controller is the default audio device. The keyboard input for the camera roll in photo mode is also fixed.
With the host of new changes and new in-game content, this will be a treat for the fans. This also looks good on the developers who care for the community and bring out regular updates to keep it fresh and lively.
