The final version of Asylum Reborn, an incredible 4K Texture Pack for Batman: Arkham Asylum, has just been released

In 2022, modder ‘GPUnity’ released the first version of his 4K Texture Pack for Batman: Arkham Asylum. And earlier today, the modder released the final version of it. This version updates all the game’s textures to 4K. And, as you will see, the result is truly incredible.

To showcase the new 4K textures, GPUnity shared the following video. This video compares the vanilla textures with the new ones. And, similarly to Halk Hogan’s HD Texture Pack for The Witcher 3, this pack is a must for everyone who wants to replay this Batman Arkham game.

Batman: Arkham Asylum came out in 2009. As such, it’s almost 15 years old. So, by today’s standards, its textures look blurry and kind of bad. I mean, just take a look at the video. They look really bad.

And that’s where this HD Texture Pack comes in. By using it, you will be able to enjoy, once again, this classic Batman game. Yes, the controls may feel a bit dated. However, thanks to these new 4K textures, the game can still look great.

Alongside this pack, I also suggest using Asylum 4K – REMASTERED 4K Cutscenes. This mod will upscale every cutscene to 4K. As such, the game won’t look bad when it switches to those cutscenes. In total, this mod remasters 39 cutscenes. So, go ahead and download it from this link.

Speaking of the Batman: Arkham series, there is a similar HD Texture Pack for Batman: Arkham City. Created by the same modder, Arkham City Redux includes over a thousand improved and enhanced textures. Plus, it fully supports DirectX 11 and is easy to install with just one setup. This is a must for all Batman: Arkham City fans.

Finally, Batman: Arkham Knight is still a great-looking game on PC, even without mods. Batman: Arkham Knight has aged like a fine wine. Truth be told, it could benefit from a 4K Texture Pack. However, contrary to Arkham Asylum or Arkham City, the vanilla textures are not THAT blurry. Since I’ve played it recently, I can say that it looks great.

And that is that. With these mods, you can enjoy the entire Batman: Arkham trilogy on PC. I’m sure you’ve heard a lot of people praising this trilogy. And they are right to do so. The Arkham games are among the best superhero games. So yeah, I highly recommend playing them.

Enjoy!
