Native Windows 11 ARM games

[kasdashd]

With the new Snapdragon X elite laptop chips having been released, and shipping in many different laptops soon, what games are actually natively optimised for the ARM version of Windows 11?

 

If somebody has a list, please share it here. It can be for mobile/casual windows store games, E-sports games, AAA games, or whatever.

 

Also, what games, that makes sense to play on a thin and light laptop, would you love to see native support for/would have to have native support, for you to replace your current x86 thin and light Windows laptop?

When they hold onto windoes for arm longer than 2 motnhs before ditching it again :p.

 

But like for real windows on arm has been done many times and its basically been one offs here and there. Until theya re at least 3 gens in and PROVE its actually functional and going to be support I wont even consider getting one.

 

That and well nuking the new copilot built in spyware, adware, malware,... garbage.

Privacy has never hurt me in any mesurable way, so I don't care about that. 

 

Also, they've already shown benchmarks, software, and gaming tests for these new chips, and a new WIndows update was just released, improving Windows ARM performance. 

 

And you gotta support the underdog to create change, so I'm giving it a try by getting one of these new laptops, testing all the games I can, and writing to developers, asking them to add full, native WIndows 11 ARM support for these new chips, since I want Windows users to experience what Apple Silicon has done for the Macs, and cause x86 needs to be replaced by ARM to fix climate change.

Just found this list of Windows on ARM games:

Not really about that. Its more that there is now a database of at least all actions you've done of the last 30 days on your pc pretty much in plain text since its just a sqllite database and all it takes is 4 lines of code to get it all, have it accesable and anyone find basically anything you've done over the last 30 days retroactively.

 

Massive cyber security risk and all! Sure if someone has access to your pc already they can do whatever, however a lot of software tends to be quite locked down so its not all too easy to login to everything or get all that data. Also deleted files and such of sensitive information are gone usually. However now those live in copilots memory. Hence the massive risk since well its not gone.

 

Sure you can turn it off for now but well it will be on again in no time due to an update and stuff.

Im very aware. Thats all really cool. I just hope they dont ditch it again or leave it to sit for years again.

The main issue right now is that ms demanded all of that to be uwp or well stuff it and no native arm running for you.

 

Since uwp is basically eol now and there is the new less restrictive windows sdk I do see that bettering.

 

However it did hurt them a lot forcing uwp for anything arm native so whilst windows for arm has been around a while its basically starting over again again software wise.

 

Curious how good the emulation of x86 programs are on the new chips. Once real benchmarks and tests come out.

 

As for climate change there's honestly a LOT we can do to MASSIVELY reduce the powerdraw of everything as is as a study I read 2 years ago concluded that around 65% of current power draw of systems is add, tracking and marketing related which is well insane honestly.

Waiting to see benchmarks. For games like WoW on the go while having efficient light laptop.

Same. They should just start with the most popular games.

Yeah, but that stuff, like ads, will never get reduced, why we can only make it as power efficient as possible. We can’t reduce the amount of gaming, streaming, social media, volunteer computing projects, and so on, but we can make sure the computer and servers running these things only use ARM chips.
