How badly the Batmobile sections ran are exactly how it was when it first launched on the PC, except slightly worse.

The fact they managed to port this game at all is a miracle considering how weak the Switch is compared to even the PS4 and Xbox One (The Switch is slightly faster than the Xbox 360). I don't think patching is going to get us anywhere, we need a Switch 2 or something to actually see Arkham Knight run well.

There is nothing to patch in here bro, the Switch is ancient and right out of the stone age. The hardware is just too weak, what else can they do.

So people consider the Rocksteady games the real Arkham games and Origins is like the illegitimate child they want to keep hidden.
Credit where it’s due, I’m glad they brought amazing games to people who may of never played this if they only have/only have had a Nintendo. But knight looks like how I imagine it would, on ps3 hardware
They had two options. Either put Origins instead of Knight which would’ve worked fine as it’s as demanding as the other two arkham games and keep arkham knight for the eventual upgraded switch. Or option 2 try to downgrade a lot of Knight’s graphics in order to make it run normally on the Switch, just like it was done with the Witcher III, even though the game would lose a lot of its charm. The publisher decided to completely rush the project and drop Knight’s framerate instead which makes the game a chore to play.
They didn’t drop the framerate. That IS the framerate. Pretty sure the game is capped at 30 but barely ever reaches that point during freeroam especially. Its capped at 30 for PS4 and One X|S as well

Hey if it runs on switch it runs, if I can play it while on break at work I'll play it, they did their best, and I'm sure they'll make it better. We just gotta give more support so it can keep updating.
I agree and disagree. It works really well for a portable console but it feels like they could’ve done a better job of optimizing and prettying up Arkham Knight.
@StraightEdgeKnight19 I wanted to say the same thing. It bothered me he couldn't even recall if this came out for PS4 or PS3, but said it had trouble running. I remember it being perfectly fine at launch for PS4. Then just a bit later it came out on PC and there a big outcry because that particular release was so buggy.
I agree, considering what it's running on It's good enough and playable. People expect to much for the switch, and don't appreciate the fact that it's even on there.
Exactly. I'm loving what I'm seeing. I had it originally on PS4 and freaking loved it. I'm completely Nintendo now and It looks pretty good to me. And you they probably already have patches lined up for it.
Hmm.... I got the game yesterday (early delivery via Amazon) and I've been playing Arkham Knight for 10 hours now and enjoying it. So your headline "THIS IS UNPLAYABLE" for this video is a either a plain lie or just clickbait. Reminds that I can put your channel on my "Ignore" list. I don't expect any valuable or useful information from the likes of you. Consider you to be one of the "Yellow Press" sites here on youtube.
Honestly I'm surprised how well the got it running on switch! I assume they will definitely will release some patches to help with stuttering, Lag, visuals and other sorts of things, and if this was your only way to play arkham knight then this wouldn't be a bad option! It's funny how it's running better than how it ran on pc during launch though. Overall, is it not the best version? Yes. Is it "unplayable" through how it looks and runs it definitely doesn't look "unplayable." But I don't know about how it controls and how much input lag it has. But I'm glad that out of choosing between releasing the game on switch in a ruff but playable state and not releasing it on switch at all they chose to release it. But if performance is an issue to people this did release as a bundle with 2 other batman games that run way better on switch.
@@ixtc It can at least make it run a little better. And if you still don't like the way it runs buy the game on any other platform it's available on. Or if you still want a batman game for switch buy one of the other 2 games they released that run way better on the switch.
@@CAPCOM784 I’m sure they’ll at least release something that makes the game run more consistently with less stutters. Should it still wouldn’t be that good but it would at least be something
This version doesn't have one thing that made the game visually appealing. Extremely Downgraded character models, lighting, textures, environments, constant 15 to 25 fps, no AF,AA, or motion blur. This is like PS3s Shadow of Mordor. You could argue that it was more "impressive" though considering the PS3 only had 256mb of ram.
it's crazy even on the rog ally Arkham knight at 1080p medium to high settings is pushing above 60fps. I know the switch is an 8-year-old console, but damn Nintendo release your next gen switch console already
It really doesnt look bad (except the framerate while driving, thats noticable) Considering the outdated hardware and this game being ahead of its time it looks decent on Switch and the devs deserve props for this.
@@bingchillin5341It's not about setting a bar though. If someone owns a switch they're not likely too worried about meeting all these standards for performance, being able to play the Arkham trilogy on the same console we play super Mario on is enough as long as it's still fun.
Same, I didn't even have that low end of a PC but the performance, especially outside was barely playable. He's at least able to drive and fight just fine.
Dude, this is bad. Even if you never played the original and this was your first experience with this game, just that car chase alone shows how tough this game would be to play. This would have been amazing on a PSP.
@@nategreatgames78 Man it ain't that bad. And btw yes I have of course played all of them. And beaten all of them. But for what it is. The fact it's even running on switch should tell you something. They putting in time and dedication just for all 3 games to be on a handheld console. Of course it won't run the best and they already know that. It's the whole reason for the patches. But like I said. Just from what I've seen so far it's amazing and I'll stand on that. It's not that bad at all. It could be worse. Y'all overreact just to have sum to say. Cut these people some slack. Cuz if it won't for them we wouldn't have these Batman games on the switch to begin with.
I’m no graphics snub, but when games look aliased and compromised to this level like it’s running on the lowest settings of a craptop, it’d turn me away. Despite that, I’m so glad people who never got the chance to play this series and aren’t bothered by the compromises can finally enjoy these games.
I like how the guy complains over it being hard to play and to difficult, when he wouldnt even glide kick the enemy, he wouldnt grappnel boost, he also didnt know hos to dive bomb, so ge I wonder if he just didnt know how to play at all😂
It's never going to look or run like the PC version, but its pretty good for what it is. People really do have to manage their expectations accordingly, the Switch is not powerful gear at all, so take it for it's capability and consider how much the devs have squeezed out of it, and you will appreciate this more. The only issue I would have is the price, it needs to be going for no more than $20 US in my opinion, especially considering the age of the game now, but Nintendo will be selling for full MSRP as if it's a brand new entry into the series or something.
Me parece que olvidan que este juego es excesivamente demandante, play Xbox y pc incluso tuvieron problemas para correrlo y a día de hoy no fueron corregidos si hoy se puede jugar no fue porque lo hayan arreglado si no porque ahora las pc son más potentes y ahora hay ps5 y Xbox x. Hay que esperar al parche del día 1 de mañana ya que quedan aún. 10 GB de parche por bajar.
La versión de PC fue arreglada y dejando de lado la versión de PS4, se podría decir que es la mejor versión del juego. El hecho de que Arkham Knight corra en Switch es por sí solo un milagro, pero odio que WB saque ports incompletos y lamentablemente eso parece que es lo que pasó. Espero que lo arreglen y de todas maneras es probably que vaya a acabar comprando esto, pero es inaceptable que saquen juegos en esta condición.
And you will still see the nintendo crazies shouting and screaming that there is no need for new hardware…. Graphics dont matter! To those lunatics i would say that while graphics arent everything, good performance is. And this is your main example, not every dev is going to do a miracle witcher or doom port. Knight is the epitome of vaseline.
Nah im good on this for now. Getting Mario Wonder instead. Atleast it has everything on the cartrigde. Waiting on a fps patch fix. Editm: i just gotten them both ngl.
Game Riot reminds me of the guys on top gear. They got so accustom driving super cars they cant drive a Toyota anymore. This dont look thay bad. This is a Switch.
for a 2015 game running on an ancient unreal engine 3 I'm honestly confused how does it run as bad as more modern switch titles like Hogwarts legacy and MK1
I wish they just waited for the switch 2.0 to come out before releasing this. Anyone competent enough to know how performance-taxing Arkham Knight is would know that releasing this game on such a gimped piece of hardware would be a dumpster fire. I can't believe this is even a thing.
@@InsertarNombre-od2bh I don't know, I ragequit the game after they wanted me to jump from roof to roof with the car, I mean why just not fly there instead ?
Arkham Knight was so broken at launch because the PC port was outsourced that Rocksteady pulled the game from steam to patch it for like 6 months and gave steam users the entire Arkham series including spin offs as compensation if you pre ordered the game. Today you can play Arkham Knight on basically any modern PC or gaming laptop at 60FPS and high to max settings unfortunately i don't see this broken port getting the same love. Side Note: Why does AK on switch look like Arkham City Lockdown on old iPhones & iPads? i mean they couldn't at the very least make it look more like City or Asylum with the new models?
I'm planning on doing the same if it's an option. I don't mind lower quality graphics, but I absolutely mind performance issues. Hoping that there's a day one patch that's just hasn't launched yet that seriously fixes those batmobile segments, but I won't hold my breath
Arkham Asylum is the only game they should have attempted to patch. MAYBE Arkham City. But Arkham Knight raised the bar in terms of graphics. I’m surprised it looked THIS good.
On one hand, I'm glad that people who only own a Switch can experience this game. On the other hand, have some standards Nintendo.

@MHA-ku3lt keep excusing bad ports and you will get no effort from the publisher to improve it.
Ps4 or ps5 version always.
arkham knight is around 50 GB in xbox one with all SEASON PASS
Why are the xg mobiles sold out expect for the 4090??
Looks fine to me. Not any different than the low end pc I played it on originally. Very excited.
Same, I didn't even have that low end of a PC but the performance, especially outside was barely playable. He's at least able to drive and fight just fine.
lol it is called update, just like Witcher 3 had, just like Doom Eternal had.
Nah fam, I play on minimum settings on PC and this looks way worse. At least the game looks playable which is ultimately what matters
"it's fine if you set your expectations very low"
@@vinicius100470 Yes, unironically. You’re using a Switch.
He plays like he’s never played the game before
this is basically for people if they want to play batman on the run or if they just want to experience the story
13:39 something for a few frames went out of batmobile and disappeared lol
What am I missing? It looks worse of course but seems to be running ok?
It could be my switch, but my copy runs perfectly fine.
Dude they need to stop overreacting. This is amazing for what it is on switch. Its not that bad on it at all. People always do too much
Dude, this is bad. Even if you never played the original and this was your first experience with this game, just that car chase alone shows how tough this game would be to play. This would have been amazing on a PSP.
@@nategreatgames78 Man it ain't that bad. And btw yes I have of course played all of them. And beaten all of them. But for what it is. The fact it's even running on switch should tell you something. They putting in time and dedication just for all 3 games to be on a handheld console. Of course it won't run the best and they already know that. It's the whole reason for the patches. But like I said. Just from what I've seen so far it's amazing and I'll stand on that. It's not that bad at all. It could be worse. Y'all overreact just to have sum to say. Cut these people some slack. Cuz if it won't for them we wouldn't have these Batman games on the switch to begin with.

I’m no graphics snub, but when games look aliased and compromised to this level like it’s running on the lowest settings of a craptop, it’d turn me away. Despite that, I’m so glad people who never got the chance to play this series and aren’t bothered by the compromises can finally enjoy these games.
I really wanna know what happened in the QA sessions for this build.
So the new suit is only available for the switch?
It's kinda interesting to see what Arkham Knight would've looked like on the PS3
Did they added the suit to pc yet ?
Please tell me
What are you talking about, dude? Arkham Knight was on PS4 and ran damn-near perfectly.
Native PC version runs at 60 FPS on PC Handhelds like Lenovo Go and Rog Ally with superior gfx vs Switch.
It's fucking amazing that a underpowered android tablet can even run this thing.
I like how the guy complains over it being hard to play and to difficult, when he wouldnt even glide kick the enemy, he wouldnt grappnel boost, he also didnt know hos to dive bomb, so ge I wonder if he just didnt know how to play at all😂
My thought exactly. I thought "hes never played this game" right after he goes to glide the first time and makes it two feet and falls
He’s talking about how it feels
Which with this type of crazy frame rate and frame times it would absolutely be the case.
As we expected
It's playable.
But just that.
It's never going to look or run like the PC version, but its pretty good for what it is.
People really do have to manage their expectations accordingly, the Switch is not powerful gear at all, so take it for it's capability and consider how much the devs have squeezed out of it, and you will appreciate this more.
The only issue I would have is the price, it needs to be going for no more than $20 US in my opinion, especially considering the age of the game now, but Nintendo will be selling for full MSRP as if it's a brand new entry into the series or something.
Me parece que olvidan que este juego es excesivamente demandante, play Xbox y pc incluso tuvieron problemas para correrlo y a día de hoy no fueron corregidos si hoy se puede jugar no fue porque lo hayan arreglado si no porque ahora las pc son más potentes y ahora hay ps5 y Xbox x. Hay que esperar al parche del día 1 de mañana ya que quedan aún. 10 GB de parche por bajar.
Es exactamente lo que pienso a ver que tal el parce del dia 1 el hogwarts lo corre de manera decente con sus bajones
I'll give them max 1 to 2 weeks to show some activity but I've played and beaten a city and knight ....I'm getting it tomorrow
La versión de PC fue arreglada y dejando de lado la versión de PS4, se podría decir que es la mejor versión del juego.
El hecho de que Arkham Knight corra en Switch es por sí solo un milagro, pero odio que WB saque ports incompletos y lamentablemente eso parece que es lo que pasó. Espero que lo arreglen y de todas maneras es probably que vaya a acabar comprando esto, pero es inaceptable que saquen juegos en esta condición.
Hay un parche de 10 GB? Enserio?
Es mi sueño poderlo jugar aunque sea decentemente
Should have been origins instead of knight
It's amazing that it even runs on these specs.
it’s not amazing if this is the outcome wtf
doesn't look bad for a switch port you get what you buy
And you will still see the nintendo crazies shouting and screaming that there is no need for new hardware…. Graphics dont matter! To those lunatics i would say that while graphics arent everything, good performance is. And this is your main example, not every dev is going to do a miracle witcher or doom port. Knight is the epitome of vaseline.
I remember playing this on the 3ds back in the day, ah nostalgia.
3ds?
I played on GBcolor
It feels like when I was using my gtx 760 2gb run this game in 2015. This game requires 4gb of VRAM.
Does it come with the playstation exclusive skins and scarecrow challenges
@Arkhambatman658 well return to arkham came with the exclusive content for both systems. So it's a legitimate question
Nah im good on this for now. Getting Mario Wonder instead. Atleast it has everything on the cartrigde. Waiting on a fps patch fix.
Editm: i just gotten them both ngl.
Felt like a meme seeing the fire to the incinerator start up here lol
This was ROUGH!!!! Classic Switch 😅
Were you wearing a mask while recording this?
It's definitely playable
Game Riot reminds me of the guys on top gear. They got so accustom driving super cars they cant drive a Toyota anymore. This dont look thay bad. This is a Switch.
for a 2015 game running on an ancient unreal engine 3 I'm honestly confused how does it run as bad as more modern switch titles like Hogwarts legacy and MK1
If Knight struggles to run on my 3050 it wouldn't surprise me if handheld had worse performance. Hopefully a patch will roll out soon.
Already complaining about how it plays on the Switch the console is weak what do you expect it to play better then Xbox one PS4
Your moment in batmobile Oh boi oh boi... 😂
It's like hail to frames baby.
I wish they just waited for the switch 2.0 to come out before releasing this. Anyone competent enough to know how performance-taxing Arkham Knight is would know that releasing this game on such a gimped piece of hardware would be a dumpster fire. I can't believe this is even a thing.
I don't really see the "unplayable" part, besides the batmobile part which is unplayable even on high end PCs (cause it's just not good implemented)
The game runs well on PC we ain't in 2015 no more.
@@Crimsongz no but the Batmobile gameplay is just awful
@@rangokfunkazuul8344C'mon it's no that bad
@@InsertarNombre-od2bh I don't know, I ragequit the game after they wanted me to jump from roof to roof with the car, I mean why just not fly there instead ?
Where's the suit?It's Dec 15
Anyone know you can go inside the diner in Free roam? just figured that out the other day
Batman Can never die is a Lie Bro just can't stay Dead
Why can't I use the skin on my ps4???
Arkham Knight was so broken at launch because the PC port was outsourced that Rocksteady pulled the game from steam to patch it for like 6 months and gave steam users the entire Arkham series including spin offs as compensation if you pre ordered the game.
Today you can play Arkham Knight on basically any modern PC or gaming laptop at 60FPS and high to max settings unfortunately i don't see this broken port getting the same love.
Side Note: Why does AK on switch look like Arkham City Lockdown on old iPhones & iPads? i mean they couldn't at the very least make it look more like City or Asylum with the new models?
I might just buy Asylum and City separately on Switch for 40 bucks (I am assuming they will go for 20 bucks each).
I'm planning on doing the same if it's an option. I don't mind lower quality graphics, but I absolutely mind performance issues. Hoping that there's a day one patch that's just hasn't launched yet that seriously fixes those batmobile segments, but I won't hold my breath
Same here
With the Metal Gear Solid games getting separate eShop pages, I’m hoping the same for Batman!
@@brandonsimoncinithat's not the same already, bro
i've played them on switch and they all run fine
Batmobile shows up and made the game into PS2 twisted metal
Maybe should've just put origins instead of knight on the collection
I’m glad they actually properly port this game to the switch.
Arkham Asylum is the only game they should have attempted to patch. MAYBE Arkham City. But Arkham Knight raised the bar in terms of graphics. I’m surprised it looked THIS good.
Sorry but I think your switch have a some kinda problem. Because my Arkham Knight works solid 30fps.
Maybe he's trying docked, who knows
I have a sandwhich, no one in the world is starving.
7GB Patch incoming!
Its like playing gta 5 in switch you can’t expect much
They should have done the smarter option and went with Arkham origins instead.
Is it 60fps or 30 like consoles?
Less than 30 fps. More like 15-30 fps.
