However, that doesn’t seem to be the case as of now, after a major news was confirmed by the developers. As reported by VGC, executive producer Fleur Marty had shared a crucial detail on the game’s Discord server. She mentioned that Gotham Knights will be locked at a maximum frame rate of 30 FPS on the consoles. It won’t support 60 FPS gameplay option. This will be available only on the PC platform.

Fleur’s reason for taking such a decision was that the game’s detailed open-world can’t be lowered down in terms of the resolution to achieve a higher FPS count. Because there’s an untethered co-op experience involved.

As soon as this news spread across social media, most of the fans were divided into two sections. There were those who simply couldn’t digest the fact the AAA game releasing on the next-gen consoles in 2022 is limited to 30 FPS.

Then there were those users who didn’t seem to have an issue at all. Because they are more excited about the story, visuals, and overall experience than higher frame rates.
