What are your system specs?

If you have no idea, do this: In the Steam client, click on "Help" at the top, then "System Information"

Dude, there's text there. Paste the text here!

You are missing some of the DirectX assemblies, you can download them here:

Alternatively they should be in your game install folder (look for CommonRedist or DirectX folders inside)

If you didn't already do so, try the advice posted by Vault Hunter 101.

To locate the files in your game install folder:
Right-click the game in your Steam Library > Manage > Browse Local Files.
In the Explorer window, navigate to 'redist' > 'DirectX', then run DXSETUP.exe

Some others found the same thing in the game's forum. I think one mentioned they fixed it by repairing PhysX or something gonna see if I can find it again.

Reinstall DirectX runtime. Install latest version of Visual C++ 2005, 2008 în both x86 and x64 versions and you'll be fine.

***Don't know what it is on Win11 but with Win10: Control Panel > Programs and Features > (or if the view by is set to Category: Control Panel > Programs >)

if another error, go onto this (installing legacy PhysX)

Hmm, could be because I had assumed you were playing Asylum but looking again at the error message I see its City. Let me see if I find something.

i also have no redist in my game files when i open the folder
So for City, (judging from SteamDB) looks like Setup > DXRedist > DXSETUP.exe
From the Arkham Asylum thread one of the guys was also mentioning Setup > vcredist_x86.exe

Same guy but in Arkham City forum

If W10 or 11, start with the redists from the game folder, and also install the PhysX from the Asylum folder. Install these, let us know your results:
Steam \ steamapps \ common \ Batman Arkham City GOTY \ Setup \ DxRedist \ DXSETUP
Steam \ steamapps \ common \ Batman Arkham City GOTY \ Setup \ dotnetfx35
Steam \ steamapps \ common \ Batman Arkham City GOTY \ Setup \ vcredist_x86

Steam \ steamapps \ common \ Batman Arkham Asylum GOTY \ redist \ PhysX_9.08.14_9.09.0814_SystemSoftware

Make sure have all drivers needed for the game installed, you can find it in your steam folder, if you installed it to default path on C drive this is where it will be.
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Steamworks Shared

If you install steam somewhere else, go to steam folder > Steamapps > common > Steamworks Shard, and you find your drivers are stored there.

If you're lacking drivers for whatever reason can search my post history for drop box that has drivers that has microsoft c++ 2005 ~ newer, and other stuff.

Anyways make sure drivers are installed, ensure your OS is up to date, and for nvidia ensure that you install the latest physx driver.
