Any plans on Open GL 4.5 for Intel HD Graphics 530 to support No Man's Sky?

No Man's Sky from Hello Games requires Open GL 4.5. Any plans for updated drivers to support this using the Intel HD graphics 530?

Hello Red-Six:

On the following link you will be able to confirm that the graphics controller Intel® HD graphics 530 supports Open GL up to 4.4:

http://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/support/graphics-drivers/000005524.html http://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/support/graphics-drivers/000005524.html

So, that is the latest Open GL version that it supports, in addition, there is no official information from Intel® stating that there will be a new driver for Intel® HD graphics 530 that will support Open GL 4.5, and it seems very unlikely for that to happen, because it is a hardware restriction for that specific graphics controller.

Any questions, please let me know.

Alberto

All the needed extensions for OGL4.5 are already implemented, so it's not a hardware restriction
