'Batman: Arkham Knight' Interim Patch Release Date For PC, Rumors: Coming In August

Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment has announced plans to roll out an "interim" patch addressing issues on the PC version of Rocksteady's "Batman: Arkham Knight" in August.

A retailer memo in Australia said the full patch won't be released until September.

The patch will target some - but not all - of the issues that are currently plaguing the game, and which have caused it to be withdrawn from sale worldwide, according to Eurogamer.net.

The announcement was also posted on the game's Steam page.

"As an update, Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment, Rocksteady and our partners are targeting an interim patch update for existing players to be released in August. This update will address many of the issues we listed in our June 27 update. We will provide additional details as we finalize that interim patch over the coming weeks," a statement from Warner reads.

The game has suffered major issues on the platform when it was launched in June, a Christian Post report said.

Reports have claimed that Warner Bros. knew for a while that the game would be a mess upon its PC launch, and that it received only a fraction of the QA testing afforded to console builds.

Things went from bad to worse for Warner that it was forced to put a stop on the sales of the game on Steam.

Rocksteady Studios meanwhile was quick to address the widespread reports of performance problems from players. The studio has pledged to get into the matter and resolve the issues "as quickly as possible."
