Batman: Arkham Origins certainly scratched the itch for players who wanted more Arkham—though the combat wasn't quite as snappy and while it took place while Gotham was being hit by a blizzard, it didn't get across the sense of being snowed-in. The Arkham Origins Advanced Graphics mod, recently updated to version 2.0, can help with what.
Textures have been upgraded, with a couple borrowed from elsewhere. The Gotham skyline's been replaced with Arkham Knight's higher-res version, and Batman's default suit borrows a higher-res version previously exclusive to the multiplayer mode for some reason. Batman's cape has had its quality upped too, looking smoother and shinier.

Shadows are less fuzzy round the edges in general, and reflections have been seriously upgraded as well.
One thing that remains unchanged is the cutscenes, which are in a format called .usm and capped at 720p. Those proved beyond the modders ability to upscale, at least for now.
To install the Arkham Origins Advanced Graphics mod you'll need to download it from Nexus Mods, unzip the files, and put them in the game's install directory. You'll also need to have at least one of the DLCs installed due to an oddity of the Arkham Origins' configuration setup.
