The Intel graphics driver doesn't have support for any new games or features, but it is carrying some important bug fixes.
Intel has a fresh driver for its Arc GPU lineup, and while it doesn't have support for any new games or features, it is carrying some important bug fixes. Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced, Assassin's Creed Shadows, Rainbow Six Siege, and LEGO Batman: Legacy of the Dark Knight are the focus of this 32.0.101.8864 non-WHQL driver.
The driver carries the following fixes on the Intel Core Ultra Series 3 and Intel Arc B-Series hardware:
•
Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced (DX12) may experience a crash when upgrading driver if the shaders have been compiled with the previous driver.
•
Assassin's Creed Shadows (DX12) may experience a crash when upgrading driver if the shaders have been compiled with the previous driver.
•
Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Siege (DX12) may experience a crash when upgrading driver if the shaders have been compiled with the previous driver.
Meanwhile, Arc A-Series, Intel Core Ultra Series 1, and Intel Core Ultra Series 2 hardware have all the above changes alongside a separate LEGO Batman fix:
•
LEGO Batman: Legacy of the Dark Knight (DX12) may exhibit corruption during cutscenes.
