Gotham Knights — PS5 & PS5 Pro performance
Technical analysis last updated
Gotham Knights has seen substantial performance improvements across platforms compared to its launch release. The PS5 version delivers the cleanest experience among consoles, holding an almost flawless 30fps framerate in both interiors and open-world Batcycle traversal while maintaining ray tracing and high resolution. Xbox Series X and S also benefit from the patches, but exhibit minor traversal dips and animation quirks in cutscenes that are not present on PS5. PC offers the best framerate potential following CPU optimisations and shader pre-compilation, though holding 60fps in the open world still demands a high-end CPU.

PS5 vs PS5 Pro
Side-by-side comparison of graphics modes, resolution and technical features.
A side-by-side comparison requires verified graphics-mode data on both PS5 and PS5 Pro. It appears here as soon as both versions are analysed.
Known issues
Occasional single frame drops occur during high-speed open-world traversal on the Batcycle, though far less severe than at launch.
The 30fps cap suffers from irregular frame pacing with frame-time spikes and dips, creating visible hitching during gameplay and traversal.
