We are aware that some users have experienced performance issues with BATMAN - The Telltale Series on Steam when playing on PC. Investigations indicate that many of these issues appear to have been due to running the game on integrated graphics cards rather than dedicated, or were the result of out of date drivers. Special thanks to those in the community who have already helped others resolve these issues before a patch could go live. A patch was released yesterday to help address performance on PC. This new patch:

• Automatically defaults the game to run on dedicated graphics card
• Adds graphics settings to enable selection of Higher Performance Textures or Higher Quality Textures (please select Higher Performance if performance is an issue)

Please also be sure that your drivers are up to date before running the game. Remember, this Steam release currently supports PC only, and we anticipate a launch of the Mac version very soon. We thank you for your patience. We will continue to investigate any performance reports as they appear, and will update here accordingly. - Telltale Games
