# [Suggestion] Please Keep Supporting XeSS 2.0+ in No Rest for the Wicked — A Must-Have for Intel Handhelds (MSI Claw 8, etc.)

Hey devs & fellow handheld fans 👋

I wanted to share a detailed suggestion about XeSS 2.0+ support and why it’s so important for the growing number of us playing No Rest for the Wicked on Intel-based handhelds like the MSI Claw 8.

⸻

🎮 Handheld Gaming Is Exploding

Millions of gamers are now playing on handheld Windows PCs — Steam Deck, ROG Ally, Lenovo Legion Go, MSI Claw 8, and more. Total shipments exceed 6 million units worldwide as of 2025.

⸻

⚡ XeSS 2.0+ = Game-Changing Performance Boost

Benchmarks show XeSS 2.0+ offers 30–60% FPS uplift at 1080p on Intel ARC and Meteor Lake iGPUs, with AI-driven motion vectors and temporal feedback delivering cleaner, low-latency visuals compared to FSR 3/4.

⸻

🛠 Why No Rest for the Wicked Needs XeSS

The game’s art and effects are gorgeous but demanding. XeSS 2.0+ unlocks smooth gameplay on handhelds without sacrificing visuals, especially on Intel iGPUs where DLSS isn’t available.

⸻

🙏 Our Request

Please continue supporting and updating XeSS 2.0+ in future patches. It’s a small effort with huge impact, future-proofing the game for the rapidly growing handheld market.

⸻

Thanks for making No Rest for the Wicked so amazing! Looking forward to future updates.
