Baldur’s Gate 3 hits its 1.0 release today, and Intel is ready for it with a Game On beta driver.
Baldur’s Gate III has just exited a lengthy early access period, and it already runs well on AMD and NVIDIA GPUs. That may be why neither company bothered to release a graphics driver for the game’s 1.0 release today. We didn’t hear any specific complaints about BG3 on Intel’s Arc Alchemist graphics cards, but we bet it runs even better when using the brand-new Intel Arc & Iris Xe Graphics BETA driver released specifically for the game.This release is a little bit unusual; typically, Intel’s graphics driver packages come as full releases complete with WHQL certification. This driver, on the other hand, is a beta driver that Intel has released specifically to add «Game On» support for Baldur’s Gate 3, and that’s basically it.
