There are rumors that Windows 10 could benefit from a Game Mode. Also, this would maximize gaming performance. Until now, the capabilities of the proposed mode were not clear. Finally, on Jan. 13, Microsoft's Mike Ybarra, who is Head of Platform Engineering Xbox, stated facts about the Game Mode. This would come with the company's Creators Update. The Game Mode will reportedly optimize the PC when a game is running so that it can perform better.
"With the Creators Update, we're introducing a new feature called Game Mode," shared Mike Ybarra. "Our vision is for Game Mode to optimize your Windows 10 PC for increased performance in gaming." He also reported that some of the "visual elements" of the new Game Mode will be made available to Windows Insiders this week. The feature is expected to become completely operational in the Windows 10 a little later, reported Tech Times.
The Xbox executive also promised that the performance of all PC games will see a definite improvement thanks to the Windows 10 Game Mode. This is all set to come with the Creators Update this spring.
The Game Mode will supposedly enable Windows 10 to regulate the GPU and CPU resources so that more power can be allocated to the gameplay vis-à-vis the background apps. When the mode arrives with the Creators Update, it will basically enable a PC to behave like a home console. Using this, resources are diverted from non-gaming processes to games, reported The Verge.
Microsoft also stated that the gamers would benefit from "Beam" which is portrayed as a quick and simple way for one to stream the gameplay. Beam will apparently connect to the player's Xbox Live account. It will, in turn, make it easy for them to stream their games to bot the Xbox Live community and Beam. The viewers all over the world will be able to see the stream, as well as interact with the broadcast. Gamers will not require any additional software to make use of this feature.
