Batman: Arkham Knight 'amazing' next-gen graphics overhaul leaves fans stunned

Arkham Knight is easily the best Batman game created to date. I’m not saying anything revolutionary there.

Let’s face it, Rocksteady cooked with the entirety of the Arkham Trilogy but it’s Arkham Knight’s refined combat and engaging side content that, for me, isolates it as the franchise’s best.

I don’t need to remind you how far we’ve fallen since then.

Suicide Squad: Kill The Justice League was a colossal disappointment for many of us, with the title’s support officially coming to an end this month.

It will remain playable but via an offline mode which is odd timing as the game landed on PlayStation Plus this week so if you are hoping to check it out via that service, expect a pared back version of the title.

For most of us though, we’re left with only one choice: to return to our beloved Arkham Trilogy for a replay.

Arkham Knight is already known for being a beautiful game, often still applauded today for what it achieved running on last-gen consoles.

But what if I told you that it could, believe it or not, look even better?

If you’ve got a copy of the title and a decent PC, you’re going to want to pay attention to what I have to say next.

Marvel 1943: Rise of Hydra is set to land this year, and is another superhero title set to deliver stellar graphics.

Technical wizard Digital Dreams is back with yet another graphics overhaul that you can replicate yourself, showcasing Arkham Knight running in 8K at 60fps.

You may as well take a look at the project for yourself below.

As always, you can head to the video’s description to find a link to Digital Dreams’ ReShade preset, allowing viewers to emulate their work.

Needless to say, Batman fans were full of praise for the stunning project.

“Looks amazing,” one viewer wrote.

“Nice 8K video,” added another, while someone suggested Digital Dreams make a “4hr long ambience” video.

I could look at this all day long too.

For those who aren’t able to jump on the PC modding bandwagon, let’s hope Rocksteady is cooking us up something new and tasty.
