Rocksteady: PC Batman "Worth the Wait"

Eurogamer: While Rocksteady co-owner and Batman game director Sefton Hill was unable to offer an explanation for the delay when quizzed by Eurogamer at the Eurogamer Expo today, he said PC gamers shouldn't be too upset - the delay amounts to only a couple of weeks, and, if they have a high-end PC, they'll enjoy better visuals than their console gaming brethren will.

After Arkham Asylum, I will never doubt this claim.

s8anicslayer5347d ago

What about the console version? Not worth the wait?

CernaML5346d ago

The console versions weren't delayed. =|

A 1 month delayed PC game in change for a shitty port; Anyday

Orpheus5347d ago

lol thank u .... im not frm an english speaking country :-)

Letros5347d ago (Edited 5347d ago )

DX11, high res textures, GPU PhysX, Stereoscopic 3D, all piled onto a great game already makes the experience so much better, I'll gladly wait a few more weeks. :-D

dirthurts5347d ago

Did they specify high resolution textures?

cyborg475347d ago

Yup!
And cmon, you having a doubt wether or not the pc version will have high resolution texures!? O_o

dirthurts5346d ago

Thanks :)
I thought they said somewhere the textures weren't changed...but I'm probably wrong. Excited!!!

Ducky5347d ago

Just as well. This fall is so packed, I don't mind games getting delayed.

kramun5347d ago

True, it's going to be an expensive end to the year with everything else coming out, I'm not sure I'll be able to afford them all. Can't complain though really I suppose, better to have too much than too little.

This is most definitely a must buy for me though, the first game was so well done. Really looking forward to it.

Ducky5347d ago

Well, if you haven't checked it out yet, you can get ArkhamCity for $29 from GreenManGaming.

kramun5347d ago

Ah cool, yeah I might get it there then. Thanks for the heads up.

Report: Rocksteady Working on New Single-Player Batman Game; Wonder Woman Rebooted and "Years Away"

Rocksteady is said to be developing a new single-player Batman game, while Monolith's Wonder Woman game has been rebooted.

lukasmain463d ago

Man I hope this is true. Arkham Knight was so much fun and a great Platinum to get. Just give us MORE Batman. It's what most of us want. None of this multiplayer shit

darthv72462d ago

Maybe during this time they can also address a performance patch for the existing games... cause you know this new one will likely have quality and performance modes. so why not the previous ones as well.

Cacabunga462d ago

New SP Batman game 🥹 PLEASE BE TRUE

JL2930462d ago (Edited 462d ago )

Arkham Knight was trash. Worst game in the trilogy, not even as good as Origins.

neutralgamer1992462d ago (Edited 462d ago )

Rumor has it that the Next batman game will be a Playstation exclusive Sony is funding it

lukasmain462d ago

I hope this is true. It means it will be of a higher quality and no microtransactions in the single player game. They can also get back-up support from Sony if and when they need it.

sweatyrich461d ago

Playstation and PC then ;-)

RaidenBlack463d ago (Edited 463d ago )

Hope the WW reboot's a move towards right direction and came after lessons learned from Suicide Squad's failure.
I have respect for Monolith since the 90s. Don't want them to eff up as well.

xHeavYx462d ago

I actually got to play test the game last year and it was dull and boring. Similar style to GOW 3 (less violent of course) but really repetitive.

RaidenBlack462d ago

God Of War 3? Gears of War 3(doubt)?
If the former, then fixed camera angle?
And how'd you get chance to play test?

xHeavYx462d ago

I always though that Gears of War was GeoW, but I meant God of War.
I live pretty close to a WB Games subsidiary, every now and then they ask for random people to playtest beta versions of some games.

RaidenBlack462d ago

Can you describe it, then?
The format, the combat, the visual tone ... whatever?

-Foxtrot462d ago

I hope Arkham is getting a refresh because Sucicide Squad kind of ruined that Universe and I kind of hate how everyone knows who Batman is after Arkham Knight. Kevin Conroy has also passed away sadly.

Either an Arkham reboot or let them create a new Universe which incorporates the Justice League at the start so they can do something with them in the far future.

I'd love a Universe similar to the Batman / Justice League Animated Series.

goken462d ago

Agreed. Also for a while there Rocksteady seemed like they would sooner make a batdog game rather than a new batman game

Redgrave460d ago

The Zany Adventures of Batmite & Friends

hennessey86462d ago

Just please stay away from Unreal engine

Tacoboto462d ago

All modern Rocksteady games from Asylum and on have been UE

RaidenBlack462d ago (Edited 462d ago )

Monolith has their proprietary Engine : Litchtech. Latest version: Firebird.
The versions prior to Firebird were all available for 3rd party licensing since the 90s and were quiet popular. Notable games/series using Litchtech: Blood 2, AVP 2, NOLF, F.E.A.R, Matrix Online, Crossfire, Mordor etc...
Only studio at WB not using UE (atleast not converted yet)

FortWaba462d ago

Pray, what is the issue with UE5?
