Crimson Desert is now somewhat playable on Intel Arc graphics cards, though Kliff's face didn't make it

A new Intel driver dropped a couple of days ago, and to the surprise of some Reddit users, it's allowing them to play Crimson Desert. A game that was previously unable to run on Arc graphics cards and integrated GPUs.

There's no explicit note about support for Crimson Desert in the driver update, 32.0.101.8629 WHQL, which was released on April 7. However, some Reddit users (via WCCFTech) are reporting the game does now boot and is, sometimes, playable.
