Intel's next graphics architecture, Xe2, will be more widely compatible with games and less clunky, says Intel Fellow Tom Petersen. The improvements announced so far for Xe2 include many specifically designed to correct issues widely reported with current Arc discrete graphics cards. But they're also designed to and put it in line with the more popular architecture of the day.
The new Xe2 architecture powering Intel's latest Lunar Lake processors is the same as what's set to arrive inside its Battlemage graphics cards. We're still none the wiser as to when Battlemage will be released, though Lunar Lake is coming later this year, in Q3.
