Hello, will there be Vulkan API support for 5th gen drivers?

[NAbad2]

Recently bought No Man's Sky and had NO idea about the vulkan switch, now I'm stuck with an unplayable game due to my driver. I use a laptop so there's no upgrading anytime soon.

Unfortunately Intel decided 3 years ago not to support Vulkan for 5th gen or older.

Review previous discussions about that.
