- Epic has caused its easy anti-treatment tool to be compatible with windows in the arm
- This means online games that use the tool work with laptops based on arms
- Which includes Fortnitewhich will be one of the first games to implement this support for Snapdragon X chips (ARM)
If you have a laptop Copilot+ with a Qualcomm Snapdragon X (ARM) processor that also uses for play tasks, here is great news: one of the greatest obstacles to players in ARM has now been banished.
As Thurrott.com reports, Epic has fulfilled his promise to make his easy to tool (EAC) compatible with Windows in the arm (the Microsoft operating system version that is installed on co -filter+ PC with arm chips, instead of AMD or Silicon Intel).
The movement comes with the new version of the Epic online services SDK (for game developers) that now has the compatibility of EAC to offer “safe multiplayer experiences on Windows 11 devices based on ARM”, as Epic points out.
EAC is used by some renowned games to eliminate problematic players that use several shaded tricks or exploits, and the lack of compatibility with the anti-treatment system meant that these games did not work on the laptops based on the arm.
These games include Epic’s Fortnite among other online shooters (Apex legends, PUBGAnd more), as well as the tastes of ELDEN RING.
ANALYSIS: The ball is now on the developer court
Epic previously promised that it would make EAC work with Windows in the arm in March 2025, and what we see here is the necessary work that is implemented in the aforementioned SDK (software development kit).
However, that is not the end of this story, not quite. Now it depends on games developers incorporating support in their titles, and Epic will be in the ball in that sense when it comes to providing support Fortnite.
A Qualcomm spokesman told Thurrott.com: “Fortnite It will be among the first titles to take advantage of this compatibility, carrying one of the most popular games in the world to laptops with Snapdragon. “
In any case, the support will gradually leakes several games, hopefully quite quickly, and this will eliminate one of the black brands in the ‘against’ column for laptops based on ARM.
Those devices that run Snapdragon X Chips can make a good enough effort to run even more demanding games: remember the first days of being impressed in these notebooks in operation Baldur Puerta 3 in 4k.
Not being able to play easy anti-treatment games in these machines was a notable weakness, and particularly with FortniteSince this is a popular option for laptop players (and not a demanding title), it was a shame to see it out of the understanding of those with Copilot+ PC based on ARM, but that will not be the case for much longer.
