NVIDIA RTX Spark is set to enter Windows on Arm PC market this fall with support from major game publishers and developers. NVIDIA confirms that RTX Spark devices will support games such as ARC Raiders, THE FINALS, Anno 117: Pax Romana, Apex Legends and EA SPORTS F1 25.
RTX Spark combines a 20-core Grace CPU with NVIDIA Blackwell graphics in a single SoC. GPU configuration can reach up to 6,144 CUDA Cores. NVIDIA plans to use RTX Spark in thin Windows laptops and PCs with AI, gaming and content creation as key use cases.
RTX Spark Targets PC Gaming
Windows on Arm has faced game support issues because many PC games need emulation when running on Arm hardware. Some games also depend on driver support, anti-cheat systems and graphics features that have not always work well on Arm devices.
NVIDIA wants RTX Spark to change this situation.
At Gamescom 2026, NVIDIA confirms that it works with game studios and publishers to make major PC games run on RTX Spark from launch. Support does not always mean every game will get a native Windows on Arm version. NVIDIA can use optimized drivers, emulation or native code based on game requirements.
NVIDIA says goal is simple: games should run and provide a smooth experience on RTX Spark.
NVIDIA also works with Epic Games on Unreal Engine performance. Unreal Engine powers many current PC games, so engine support can help bring more games to RTX Spark.
ARC Raiders and THE FINALS Support
Embark Studios joins NVIDIA RTX Spark game support with two online games: ARC Raiders and THE FINALS.
Both games depend on online play, graphics performance and anti-cheat systems. Support from Embark gives RTX Spark users access to games that can test gaming performance on NVIDIA’s new Arm PC platform.
NVIDIA confirms that ARC Raiders and THE FINALS are among games planned for RTX Spark support.
Ubisoft Brings Anno 117: Pax Romana
Ubisoft also joins RTX Spark support.
Anno 117: Pax Romana will support RTX Spark from day one. Game uses large city scenes, long viewing distances and many objects on screen. NVIDIA says RTX Spark can handle this type of workload with its integrated Blackwell GPU.
Ubisoft says Anno 117: Pax Romana was built to show large districts, long sightlines and many details at once. Support for RTX Spark aims to bring this game experience to a new Windows on Arm PC platform.
EA Adds Javelin Anti-Cheat Support
Game support needs more than graphics drivers. Online games also need anti-cheat systems to work correctly.
NVIDIA confirms work with EA to bring EA Javelin Anticheat to RTX Spark. Support will cover EA multiplayer games such as EA SPORTS F1 25.
EA games such as Apex Legends, F1 and Battlefield 6 are also part of wider RTX Spark game support plans.
Native anti-cheat support can help RTX Spark handle online games without forcing players to deal with compatibility issues caused by unsupported security software.
More Game Publishers Join RTX Spark
NVIDIA confirms support from a wide group of game publishers and developers.
Companies and studios on board include:
- BeamNG
- Capcom
- CD Projekt RED
- EA
- Embark
- Facepunch
- Gaijin Entertainment
- IOI
- Konami
- Krafton
- Mihoyo
- NCSoft
- NetEase Games
- Remedy
- Riot Games
- Saber Interactive
- SEGA
- Ubisoft
- Epic Games
- Wargaming
- Warhorse
- Xbox
KRAFTON, NetEase, Riot Games and Xbox had already announced RTX Spark support at COMPUTEX. Gamescom adds EA, Embark and Ubisoft to this group.
SEGA has also shown support for RTX Spark, including plans for classic game franchises such as Virtua Fighter.
RTX Spark Gaming Performance
NVIDIA positions RTX Spark as more than an AI PC platform. Company also targets PC gaming and content creation.
RTX Spark can deliver up to 6,144 CUDA Cores through its Blackwell GPU design. NVIDIA says RTX Spark can target 100+ FPS at 1440p with ray tracing and DLSS. Official independent benchmarks are not yet available, so real-world game performance will need testing after launch.
DLSS and Reflex are also part of RTX Spark gaming support. DLSS can help increase frame rate while maintaining image quality, while Reflex can reduce system latency in supported games.
RTX Spark Also Targets AI and Content Creation
Gaming is only one part of RTX Spark.
NVIDIA builds platform around local AI, content creation and PC workloads. RTX Spark includes a 20-core Grace CPU and integrated Blackwell graphics. NVIDIA says system can run AI models with up to 120 billion parameters locally.
NVIDIA also targets 8K video editing and rendering workloads. Full NVIDIA AI software support gives RTX Spark access to tools designed for AI development and local agent workloads.
This approach makes RTX Spark different from a standard gaming laptop. NVIDIA wants one platform to handle gaming, AI, content creation and daily PC work.
DLSS 4.5 and More NVIDIA Gaming Updates
Gamescom 2026 also brings updates beyond RTX Spark.
NVIDIA announces DLSS 4.5 Ray Reconstruction, which uses a second-generation transformer model to improve image quality in ray-traced and path-traced content.
Path tracing is also coming to CONTROL Resonant and 007 First Light.
Gears of War: E-Day will use RTX Mega Geometry with ray tracing and DLSS 4.5.
NVIDIA also continues work on RTX Remix, with a Painkiller RTX update available and an RTX version of The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind planned.
NVIDIA ACE technology is planned for Aniimo in early 2027, allowing players to interact with creatures through natural interaction.
RTX Spark Launch Date
NVIDIA plans to launch RTX Spark PCs and laptops this fall. Devices will target thin and lightweight designs while combining Arm CPU technology with NVIDIA Blackwell graphics.
Gaming support from EA, Ubisoft, Embark and other publishers gives NVIDIA a path to address one of biggest issues faced by Windows on Arm PCs: game compatibility.
RTX Spark does not depend only on native Arm game builds. NVIDIA plans to use driver optimization, emulation and native support where needed. Work with Unreal Engine and major publishers can also help expand game support over time.
With ARC Raiders, THE FINALS, Anno 117: Pax Romana, Apex Legends, EA SPORTS F1 25 and other games moving toward RTX Spark support, NVIDIA is positioning its first client PC platform as a Windows on Arm system built for gaming as well as AI.
More performance details should arrive closer to RTX Spark launch.
