Intel Iris Xe Compatibility Issue with Elden Ring: Nightreign

Dear Intel Support Team,

Tens of posts have already been posted about this but here we go again, Elden Ring Nightreign doesn't work on intel iris xe, I've done all fixes online and here are the outcomes:

  • On windows simply white screen then a crash.
  • On linux since I can force launch the game, it launches but there are red artifacts covering the screen.

This is not a performance issue, this game runs fine on this CPU and iGPU easily 40-60 fps on 720p as people have previously tested, I also play much heavier games so it doesn't make sense that this doesn't work.

System Information:

  • Processor:"12th Gen Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-1255U , GenuineIntel"
  • GPU: Intel Iris Xe Graphics
  • Driver Version: 32.0.101.7085

  • Available (at scan): ~14 GB
  • OS: Windows 11 Pro
  • Version: 10.0.26200 (Build 26200.7840)
  • .NET Versions: 2.0 → 4.8
