Tag, you're it.
Taken directly from the review by PCGamer:
As I've said before, Alder Lake isn't an iterative update to an already long-standing architecture.
For that, it appears some creases weren't ironed out ahead of launch, and one is the occasional incompatible game, as Intel stated ahead of time in regards to DRM solution, Denuvo.
Intel said it was yet to remedy an issue with Denuvo on Alder Lake for 32 games, which was causing issues playing these games on the platform, but the remainder of the library was good to go.
So clearly there are still some areas to run the iron over, even post-launch. I can only be hopeful that these issues are solved early on and that new releases are correctly optimized for Alder Lake.
I would assume so, but I can't say for sure. So sit tight, and if you're a big Assassin's Creed: Valhalla fan, maybe stick with your old CPU for a little while before upgrading to the 12th Gen.
For recent and future games, updates are likely to be rolled out quickly if they haven't already. On the other hand, the question arises for older games that no longer benefit from assiduous monitoring.
For these titles, nothing excludes that they do not become unplayable on a PC equipped with an Alder Lake processor.
