It"s driver update time for Intel integrated and discreet GPU owners, as the company has now pushed out the 32.0.101.8724 non-WHQL release. This one is adding day-one support for Capcom"s brand-new action game Pragmata that released earlier today. Other than that, there is a handful of bug fixes included in this release too.
Speaking of bug fixes, Intel"s driver team has begun its work on Crimson Desert. The game refused to run on Intel graphics at launch, and only after a community backlash did the developer promise to bring support. With this driver, the corruption effects on plants should go away when playing the open-world adventure.
Here are the fixed and known issues of this release:
