The excitement of seeing the "the Dark Knight" in action in Rocksteady's newest video game, Batman Arkham Knight, has left many a fans disappointed, mainly due to various issues cropping up with the PC edition of the game.
As promised earlier, the developer has come up with a new update that it says will be a solution for the time being for several issues such as crashing during the game exit, steam re-loading, disabling of rain and ambient occlusion.
This is the first update for the PC edition and is already available for download. Batman Arkham Knight hit the stores on 23 June for PC, PS4 and Xbox One.
Below are the fixes it has worked on for the new update (Community):
