From the moment it launched, Crimson Desert has been a big hit with PC gamers with AMD or Nvidia graphics cards. For those with Intel GPUs, it’s been a completely different story. But there’s now a little more light at the end of the tunnel, as the newly released drivers claim to solve flickering problems in the game, though only for Battlemage B-series chips.
Intel’s B570 is currently the most affordable graphics card out of all the current generation of GPUs, but while its low price has endeared it to budget-conscious PC gamers, it’s not been the card of choice for Crimson Desert fans. The game released with a clear message for Arc owners: They weren’t supported, and you should probably get a refund.
Drivers can only do so much to sort out issues with incorrect shader code, and in the case of Crimson Desert, it looks like Arc owners will have to wait until Pearl Abyss releases a patch for its game that adds full support for Intel’s GPUs before diving in. Let’s hope that this isn’t too far off in the future.
