'Batman: Arkham Knight' DLC release date news: 'Batgirl' expansion pack delayed for PC

WB Games

The PC version of "Batman: Arkham Knight" isn't ready for Batgirl yet as the game is still plagued with issues, first experienced by gamers upon its release. Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment has announced that it is doing everything to get it fixed as soon as possible. Unfortunately, even with the team hard at work, the PC version of the action-adventure title would not make it in time for the release of the "Batgirl: A Matter of Family" DLC. 

"Our continued focus on getting the right PC fixes in place for the main game has had an impact on the development of all DLC content for the PC version of the game," Gary Lake-Schaal, vice president of Game Technology at WBIE, wrote on Steam, adding that they are "working on this every day." 

In finally breaking the bad news, Lake-Schaal wrote, "This means that the Batman: Arkham Knight – Batgirl: A Matter of Family DLC will not be available on July 14 for those who are currently playing the PC version of the game." 

On that note, he apologized for the delay and reiterated their commitment to producing content that's "up to the standards that PC players expect." He did not say when players on PC will get to play the Batgirl-centric DLC. 

According to Tech Times, it shouldn't take long for the game studio to fix whatever the issues the game. However, it is still difficult to pinpoint a specific date on when the expansion pack will be playable as well as when the PC version of the game will be back on sale. 

WBIE immediately extracted copies of "Batman: Arkham Knight" upon recognizing the performance and graphical issues experienced by players across the globe. Game developer Rocksteady is currently figuring things out with graphics companies AMD and Nvidia.

WBIE will update players on the PC version's fixing process and re-release before the week ends.
