Rocksteady’s upcoming threequel, Batman: Arkham Knight, was always going to be a huge title, acting as the conclusive chapter in what many consider to be the best superhero trilogy in modern video game history. However, according to statistics revealed today by Nvidia, The Caped Crusader’s upcoming outing will also be weighty in terms of technical requirements, after the tech giant unveiled the minimum, recommended and eye-watering ultra settings needed to run Arkham Knight in various visual standards.
At minimum, Rocksteady’s title will occupy 45GB of space on your hard drive, with the recommended and ultra setting demanding an extra 10GB on top of this threshold. The studio didn’t specify the reason for this extra chunk of memory, though it’s clear that the resolution scales quite considerably across the three echelons. To gauge whether your personal rig can handle Batman: Arkham Knight, you can delve into the technical minutia below.
