No matter how swift you are with either a controller or the keyboard, the abilities mustn’t go undisturbed. With this in mind, Warner Bros. Games released a new controller update for Gotham Knights that see fixes for both console and PC platforms. You can the new update and other announcements for the game through the provided link.
