Live the true story behind the epic legend of King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table in King Arthur. Based on the 2004 King Arthur movie from producer Jerry Bruckheimer, the King Arthur game lets you take control of one of five heroes, including Arthur, Lancelot, and Guinevere, each with unique weapons and skills. With three modes of battle, motion-captured fighting sequences and moves, and cutscenes from the film, King Arthur re-creates the events of this legendary tale.

Emulation Information

16:9

King Arthur has a native 16:9 display option, but it requires enabling it in its internal options and setting Dolphin's Aspect Ratio graphics setting to "Force 16:9". Using the widescreen hack with this title is not recommended.

Problems

Secret XP Crash

As of 4.0-5143, the secret experience upgrades (shaped like a scroll) throughout the game will cause an Unknown Opcode error and hang Dolphin when collected. There is no known fix other than avoiding these specific upgrades in the game.

Off Center

Since at least 4.0.2, graphics throughout the game display smaller than normal and shifted to the left. Enabling Virtual XFB solves the issue.

Revision OS CPU GPU Result Tester
4.0-5143 Ubuntu 14.10 Intel Core i3-3220 @ 3.3GHz NVIDIA GeForce GTX 650 Starts. Needs Virtual XFB. The secret XP upgrades cause the game to hang horribly when collected. Water effects and some attack animations look really bad causing extreme stretched textures without EFB to RAM, but EFB to RAM doesn't fully correct the issues either and it drops FPS from 30 to 15-20 while at 100% emulation speed which looks even worse. There's some other graphical issues that seem to be entirely random, like Dolphin rendering garbage at the top of the screen ingame. The gameplay is alright but even at the best of times it likes to drop to 80% speed without warning. Xerxes
