Hopefully it'll be properly patched up on PC.

Lee Devonald, a Senior Character Technical Artist from Rocksteady, tweeted that the real culprit isn't the game features; it's the Xbox Series S. He says the cheaper Xbox Series isn't much better than its last-gen predecessor. And as multi-platform games have to be optimized for the lowest performer, the XBS, which Devonald calls a "potato," is hamstringing "an entire generation of games."

This is interesting for a couple reasons, Rocksteady had nothing to do with this game so interesting that Lee is speaking out on this. Perhaps he is setting up for mediocre performance on the next Rocksteady DC release in Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League.
Another interesting point is that other developers have succeeded on not only the Series S but delivered great upgrades on the the PS5 and XSX that show of the power of the beefier systems.
