Ouch.

Wow. This is a total balls up.

So the game was actually released and now withdrawn from sale and delayed?

Thats disgusting. How can something so broken go so far through the development process and be released at retail without someone going, Hey this game is crap, maybe we shouldnt release it.

I'm sure they thought, we'll just patch it later. So glad games are all made with an online environment in mind now.

SARCASM.

I know PC was always online, but thanks to consoles going online as well this is the mindset the contemporary dev community is cultivating.

Broken releases and a We'll fix it after you bought it attitude.

I hope this game bombs so gamers send publishers a clear message, this isnt good enough. Man up and delay a game before release if you need to.

Unreal...

Well PC gamers got Phantom Pain, Fallout 4 and Battlefront to look forward to anyways

massive blow up on rocksteady's part.Never seen this happen before

Damn that's a long ass time. Good think I refunded it and I'll buy it in a year when its less than $20.

While just delaying the PC version of the game before release would have been disappointing on its own, the damage has unfortunately already been done to Rocksteady's credibility. Just delaying it from the start (or rather, creating a proper PC version with an ample dev team) would have been a much wiser decision.

I don't actually blame that team that ported it on PC. I blame WB Games because from what I can guess is that they were desperate to release it at same along console version not giving Iron Galaxy Studios enough time to polish it up and do some testing. Now that people raged all over internet they were forced to remove it from sale. WB Games the state that this game has been released is UNACCEPTABLE especially for a AAA game for $60.

Here is the US Steam link where is also says it is delayed. https://store.steampowered....

Wow. The damage must go pretty damn deep if it is going to take that long to fix.

Edit: Think I'll wait for a story source in English first. A bit iffy on news coming out of nowhere.

This article is 100% wrong. They are basing it off of the FALL release for SteamOS, Linux and Mac in Fall 2015.

This has nothing to do with current release of the game. The picture they are going by has been up since Arkham Knight was put on Steam.

Has nothing to do with current release for Windows! Sales have only been "Temporarily" suspended while Rocksteady and WB can come up with a fix.

Until Official word is made by WB this is all false click bait.

It's not delayed till fall 2015. Steam OS, Linux and Mac version are coming out this fall. Not the PC version. Can't you even read?

"Batman: Arkham Knight will be available on SteamOS, Linux and Mac in Fall 2015."

Nothing about Windows, which it released on. Also that little note has been there for awhile, long before the game even released. Reading is hard.

Steam refund most have done a number one them, maybe devs/publisher are going to learn that you can't half ass it anymore on PC.

I've never seen anything like this happen. A game actually gets released, only to be recalled and delayed for later release.

Perhaps Microsoft should include this for free for Gold Members in the cross buy program when the time comes ?

Too many problems to list on PC, for games only you are better off with a console. the games look and play good and are more comfortable on a couch + large telly rather than being perched up upstairs on a PC using a 22" on a desk

this sucks for PC gamers but tbh the ps4 version has turned out amazing plus its only £40 new at morrisons

I Can't believe people are so gullible and retarded this is for the FALL release for SteamOS, Linux and Mac in Fall 2015. This do not I repeat DO NOT have ANYTHING to do with the current release of the game. The picture they are going by has been up since Arkham Knight was put on Steam. SMDH WOW keep reaching

I hope that we can still play it before the new official release date, I'm one of the lucky ones and apart from a couple of crash on launch it runs perfectly once it loads up. Played it for 2 hours tonight with not a single problem.

This has to be a first? so pleased I got it for my ps4

Holy crap....this is a major f*ck up on WB's part...man....

I REALLY wanted to play this game on PC.

What's done is done and what matters now is that they get this thing fixed. Sure looked great on PC.

Basicly Many steam users demanded a refund as a overwelming demand Valve contacted WB.
I think WB already was aware of few complaints as rocksteady making for consoles WB got a 3rd part dev to port the version.
I think WB didnt realise how widespread the issue was plus the devs used a certain NEW DRM that as launched last year so i hear that can hurt games if not handled right.
Basicly WB possibly handle the port nowand recode the game or rocksteady think WB learnt lesson.
On flip side they did appologise they stopped steam sales and shipping f the game for retail its gonna be hard for WB get back there customers who got burnt so im hoping when they relaunch it they reduce the price tag maybe free DLC?.

Are they going to release patches for people who bought it or they'll just do absolutely nothing about them until they re-release the game??

There is a rumor on the net (Chinese sites and deep web) that all this mess was caused by denuvo and contract problems so some people on dev team(s) then deliberately sabotaged the game on pc and once the info leaked wb pulled the game from steam, something strange happened with this game... odds are they got too greedy and got handled by the people that would not allowed.

This is a WB games we are talking about and on top of that there is this draconian denuvo, so sad.

Even with edited title, this is still 100% WRONG! Release for SteamOS, Linux and Mac in Fall 2015 was never delayed and it always had a fall release date since Arkham Knight was put on steam.

This article should be removed as that website has no clue.
