Batman: Return to Arkham (UE4 remasters)

[AWPC]

Had an email from WB Games earlier announcing these for XB1+PS4. Its Arkham Asylum & Arkham City remastered in Unreal Engine 4 with way better gfx

Not sure about PC though even though both games are recreated with better gfx in Unreal Engine 4 no PC announcement yet

Surely they are not going to ignore PC are they after the Arkham Knight fiasco imagine the outcry if they ignore PC on this which is coming in only a few months in July!!

It's not like it's a huge upgrade, PC versions are fine. Console versions can definitely be improved. The Arkham Knight fiasco probably set it in stone to be console only. Probably put WB/Rocksteady off PC for all time

Have you seen the screenies, looks aweful, stick with the originals on PC

 

[Aretak]

Doesn't really bother me, as I swore to never buy another WB game after the Arkham Knight fiasco and the way they abandoned the PC version of Mortal Kombat X. They don't give a **** about the platform anyway, so they might as well stick to consoles only.

I watched the video for the remaster on PS4/Xbox One and literally couldn't see a difference.

 

[This never ends well]

Not coming to pc.

PS3 vs PS4 big difference here in some but not all scenes! The reason its rumoured to never come to PC is Steam refunds system after Arkham Knight debacle

"Hi guys,

Sorry for the delay in jumping onto this thread. Batman: Return to Arkham is only available for PlayStation 4 and Xbox One consoles in order to provide players with Rocksteady’s Batman: Arkham games that were previously only released on the PS3 and Xbox 360. As the PC versions of AA and AC are already running at higher resolutions than those for previous generation consoles, we decided to focus development solely on PS4 and Xbox One.

Hope that helps clear things up!"

So not looking like it will ever come to PC despite looking much better due to UE4

It looks the bloody same lol, consoles can keep it.

Its not the same at all its rebuilt from the ground up using Unreal Engine 4! The trailer is made up of pre-rendered cutscenes not ingame footage there have been a few ingame screenshots shots released it clearly has superior textures & shader FX!!
