"The graphics device is currently not supported" - After seemingly ghosting Intel, Crimson Desert devs are now "working on compatibility" for Intel Arc GPUs

A banner image for Crimson Desert side by side with a marketing image for Intel Arc GPUs, separated by an orange line.

Since its launch last week, Crimson Desert has thrown up this message when PC gamers with an Intel Arc graphics card try to launch the game: "The graphics device is currently not supported".
