Gotham Knights runs at 30 FPS on consoles
In the Gotham Knights Discord channel, Fleur “Flaoua” Marty, the game’s executive producer, announced that it will run at a fixed 30 frames per second on Xbox and PS5, which does not allow switching between graphics and performance modes.
Marty’s statement:
“Hello @everyone, I know many of you are wondering about the availability of a perfomance mode for Gotham Knights on consoles. Due to the types of features we have in our game, like providing fully untethered co-op experience in our highly detailed open-world, it’s not as straightforward as lowering the resolution and getting a higher FPS. For this reasoun our game does not have a performance/ quality toggle option and will run at 30 FPS on consoles.”
The official release date
With the preload starting on 10/19/2022, it will launch just two days before the official release of Gotham Knights, which will be released on October 21, 2022. An exact time is not yet known at this point.
