Gotham Knights is unplayable on Steam after the latest update

Gotham Knights players are reporting that the game is no longer playable on Steam after the latest software update.

Fans took to social media to complain about the issue, which began last night when they downloaded an update with a patch that will improve keyboard issues, co-op gameplay issues and the game’s overall stability – all complaints that come after Gotham Knights launched last week. According to PC gamerpatch temporarily removed the controversial Denuvo anti-piracy software on Wednesday, but when it was patched back 15 hours later, the update made the game unplayable.

Paratrooper101 wrote on Reddit that they tried to queue the update on Steam only to have it never download or install. Even when they tried to uninstall and reinstall Gotham Knights, they would get a “Manifest not available” error, preventing the game from updating or installing at all. However, it can still be purchased from the Steam Store.

The official Twitter account for Warner Bros. Games Support is responding to people complaining about the manifest error, saying that the company is actively investigating the issue.

So Gotham Knights can no longer be played on Steam, installed or updated, but can still be purchased

This has been the case since yesterday evening and there have been no official statements or updates since @GothamKnights @WBGamesMTL

You have to dig to find something about it. Um
