Game compatibility driver update for Iris Xe graphics?

[zelenkai]

I have only seen game compatibility updates for ARC graphics for over 1/2 a year now.  Iris Xe uses the same drivers but gains none of the benefits of the ARC game updates.

Can we get some updates for Iris Xe graphics users?  Many of us are waiting for game compatibility updates so we can play games.

Recently the games I have been playing or trying to play is:

Diablo 4

Street Fighter 6

Aliens Dark Descent

These are not heavy graphics setting games and will play on low settings but some games like in Diablo 4,  the driver is completely incompatible with the game.  The game will load but has many artifacts and graphics settings do not work in game at all.  It has been available for ARC for 1/2 a year now.

Also none of the game performance optimizations for ARC has made it to Iris XE.  Even very old titles such as Starcraft 2 has frame rate drops and can not run above low settings.

The other two games run on Iris XE unlike Diablo 4 which is completely incompatible with Iris XE. 

I am just looking for a general game compatibility and performance update so we can run more recent games which has been lacking in all the Iris XE drivers but available for ARC. 

I am sure there are many games that can benefit from a driver update.

Is there any update on this?  Diablo 4 is nearly 6 months old now and still no support for Iris XE. 

Also, no driver improvements for Iris XE for any of the games mentioned above.
