Intel says Pearl Abyss declined help to support Arc GPUs in Crimson Desert

Intel claims it repeatedly offered Pearl Abyss early hardware, drivers, and engineering support for Intel Arc GPU optimization in Crimson Desert but was declined. This non-cooperation led to Arc GPUs lacking support at the game's launch, despite its status as a top seller on Steam. Going forward, the situation puts pressure on Pearl Abyss to address players' refund demands and potentially revisit hardware support amid community scrutiny.
