Intel heeft een gloednieuwe Arc Graphics Driver uitgebracht, versie 30.0.101.1736 om precies te zijn, voor de officiële lancering van de discrete Arc A380. Deze driver biedt verder optimale ondersteuning voor Redout 2, Resident Evil 2, Resident Evil 3, and Resident Evil 7: Biohazard. De laatste drie hebben een update verkregen met geüpdatet graphics en systeemeisen, waar de Arc A380 dus aan voldoet.
- Launch driver for Intel Arc A380 Graphics (Codename Alchemist).
- Intel Game On Driver support for Redout 2*, Resident Evil 2*, Resident Evil 3*, and Resident Evil 7: Biohazard* on Intel Arc A-Series Graphics.
Opvolgend biedt deze videodriver een aantal fixes voor Destiny 2, Far Cry 6 en Naraka: Bladepoint.
- Far Cry 6* (DX12) may experience texture corruption in water surfaces during gameplay.
- Destiny 2* (DX11) may experience texture corruption on some rock surfaces during gameplay.
- Naraka: Bladepoint* (DX11) may experience an application crash or become unresponsive during training mode.
Dan zijn er de aanhoudende, bekende problemen in deze driverrelease, waar er in een handjevol games nog wat visuele of anderzijdse kwesties zijn.
