Not even Multi-GPU Support For Batman: Arkham Knight
Ok, the game release pretty much is a disaster eh ? After all that happened, now you do not get multi-GPU support either. This actually is an Nvidia Gameworks supported title ? The promised re-release of Batman: Arkham Knight on Steam did not pack any performance improvements at all (compared to its Interim patch). Now SLI and Crossfire is not supported either.
Today Warner Bros stated that there won't be any patch to add multi-GPU support :-(
We’ve been working with our development and graphics driver partners over the last few months to investigate utilizing multi-GPU support within Batman: Arkham Knight. The result was that even the best case estimates for performance improvements turned out to be relatively small given the high risk of creating new issues for all players. As a result we’ve had to make the difficult decision to stop work on further multi-GPU support. We are disappointed that this was not practical and apologize to those who have been waiting for this feature.

Quite a fail
I wonder why that is since previous versions did support it
It's a heavily modified UE3. Dev said that SLI gains weren't significant and caused more issues.
PS, that's why i don't do SLI/CF

You got it!
No point of spending more money for something that no one will buy, its old, its broken and everybody know it, especially they.

C'mon lads! You really thinking that Nvidia is at fault here? They most likely paid WB to produce Batman under their gameworks scheme. And $ucked it up for them big time..We should be throwing stones at WB and make sure we don't buy any of their games for at least 2 years until they get their finger out..

Indeed. I suppose nvidia got tired of SLI users waiting around to upgrade their hardware and this is the end result. I expect nothing less from a company that nerfed one chip to boost the sales of another. Oh how I wish AMD got some of their clout back, I so want to take a break from nvidia when I finally do put this old rig to bed.
