Will this run on an Intel UHD Graphics 620? (YES!...temporarily)

[Spartan]

I know the minimum requirements say you need a dedicated graphics card, but so do other games but you can still run some of those games with integrated graphics, you just have to turn the settings way down and edit some of the ini files to get more performance. Is this possible with RAGE 2's engine?

For example I can play Tekken 7, Soul Calibur 6, Hat in Time, and Borderlands GOTY Enhanced on a Surface Pro, and all those games have high minimum requirements (Hat in Time actually tells me I need to use a GPU when I run the game but I can skip the notification and still play it at 60 fps when I adjust the settings appropriately and I can still have a bunch of post processing effects. Tekken 7 and Soul Calibur I run at a stable 60 fps. So I'm wondering if I can do the same with this game even if it doesn't look too pretty with the settings turned down.

Edit: Just tested it, and it runs! You can run around and shoot and fight enemies for a few minutes in 60 fps, and then it crashes...

It will most certainly not play on CPU integrated graphics.

Just ran the tool and it says I can't run the game. But I went ahead and checked it for Borderlands and Tekken 7 and they both say I can't run those either, lol, even though I play them regularly. So maybe it's still possible to run RAGE 2.

OP here, so I actually got RAGE 2 running on the Surface Pro with it's integrated Intel UHD Graphics 620! ...For a few minutes!

When it first booted up the fps was like a slideshow, even on the main menu. But as soon as I got in-game, skipped the cut scenes and chose my character, I went into the pause menu settings and I was able to turn all the graphics options down and set the resolution to 1280 x 720. The game automatically adds the letterbox no matter what resolution you pick since the Surface is 3:2.

Then I set the minimum resolution to 25%. The game now runs at silky smooth 60 fps! I can probably set the minimum resolution higher but for now I'm leaving it here since there's nothing really going on in the beginning area. I can hang around this area and the game runs great. Once I get outside and the fighting starts, the performance is still really good if a bit ugly and blurry because the resolution is so low. But it's still very playable and smooth.

However once I get down after falling from the zip line, there's these strange horizontal bars that show up near the top part of the screen whenever I shoot my pistol. And then shortly after fighting more enemies the game crashes.

I'm not sure what's causing it. But the fact that the game runs fine for a while means it could just be an optimization issue. I tried checking if my drivers were updated and they are, but I've been reading that Microsoft and Intel are currently having a couple issues with the Intel driver software compatibility. Nvidia has its own control panel that you can tweak options with, and Intel's integrated graphics are supposed to have their own control panel that you can download too, but somehow Surface devices are not compatible with it right now unless you install new drivers separately that are not officially supported. For now, Microsoft is supposed to be working on a fix to allow surface devices to natively support Intel's control panel. Some people also recommend installing Intel drivers manually but they can also cause issues with the Surface touch functionality, so I'm gonna hold off and do some more research and/or wait for Microsoft's new drivers.

But it works! ...If only for a few minutes. :)
And it looks like I'm playing on a Gameboy Advance, but it's running at 60 fps!
