A website has emerged that will allow you to know if a game will be compatible with your Windows on Arm machines. And the website is official for Microsoft.
The main attraction of the May Windows event was the presentation of PC Copilot+, but the company also showcased its Windows-on-Arm devices. That is, ARM-based devices that run Windows as their native OS.
During the event, Adobe confirmed that some of its applications would use Arm hardware in June, demonstrating that, amidst the AI gold rush, Microsoft still wants to take off Windows-on-Arm. Now, a website has appeared that will allow you to know if a game will be compatible with your Windows on Arm machines.
According to Windows Central, Microsoft revealed the website WorksonWoa during its Build event. Although Microsoft gives its approval to the website, it is actually managed by the community and powered by Linaro, a company that works to help people adopt Arm-based solutions.
How to know if you can play the new Call of Duty on an ARM computer with Windows 11
On the website, you can search for the name of a game and get answers from people who have tried running it on a Windows PC with Arm. Each game receives one of four ratings, ranging from “Perfect” to “Unplayable”.
If a game works on Arm, the tester will indicate the achieved frame rate, the chip used, and the date the test was performed. If you have an Arm processor, test some of your games and send the results to WorksonWoa.
The advantages are the usual ones: Arm-based CPUs usually consume less battery than other processors, so an Arm laptop is a marvel of autonomy. And if you want to wait a little to see how things evolve, why don’t you take a look at how the Snapdragon X will be a big step forward for Windows?
