Microsoft-approved Website Reveals Windows Game Performance on Arm

Microsoft and Qualcomm have recently unveiled WorksOnWoA.com, a website dedicated to tracking the performance of Windows games on Arm-based devices. With over 1,400 games already tested, users can search to see if their favorite games fall into categories such as “Perfect,” “Playable,” “Runs,” or “Unplayable.” The site, developed by the Arm engineering group Linaro, provides detailed information on how games run on devices powered by Snapdragon X Elite chips. While some games are optimized to run at 1080p and 60fps, others may have bugs or issues that affect the gaming experience. The website also highlights the use of Microsoft’s AI upscaling technology to improve performance, showcasing impressive results for games like Borderlands 3.

Arm-based Devices Revolutionize Windows Gaming Experience

As Microsoft’s new Surfaces and Copilot Plus PCs shift towards Arm chips, the gaming landscape on Windows laptops is undergoing a significant transformation. WorksOnWoA.com offers insights into the compatibility of popular games with Arm-based devices, providing users with valuable information on performance and graphics settings. While some games may run flawlessly at high frame rates and resolutions, others may encounter issues or be deemed unplayable due to anti-cheat measures. With the continuous development of Arm technology and support for BattlEye anti-cheat system, the future of gaming on Arm-based devices looks promising.

Community Contributions Enhance Gaming Experience on Arm Devices

Linaro emphasizes that the information provided on WorksOnWoA.com serves as a guide and may not guarantee flawless performance on all machines. Users are encouraged to contribute their own findings to the website through commits and pull requests, ensuring a comprehensive database of game compatibility on Arm-based devices. With the collaboration of Microsoft, Qualcomm, and the gaming community, the accuracy and reliability of performance tests on WorksOnWoA.com continue to improve, offering gamers valuable insights into the gaming capabilities of Arm-powered devices.
