Intel has released the 31.0.101.5522 WHQL driver, which offers support for multiple games, especially Hellblade 2. The new driver offers support for Senua’s Saga: Hellblade II, Starfield May Update, Wuthering Waves and XDefiant.
Along with optimizations for new games, WHQL version 31.0.101.5522 brings performance improvements for Starfield on systems with Intel Arc A-Series graphics. According to Intel, this new driver offers a performance increase of up to 8% in 1080p gameplay and an average of 7% in 1440p.
Despite the added support, Intel’s new driver does not contain any bug fixes. Therefore, it may be necessary to wait for the next driver to fix existing errors.
