Verdict: STRUGGLING
Mass Effect 5 is likely to run on Intel Iris Xe Graphics, but performance will be subpar. Expect around 20-30 FPS at 1080p with low settings. The integrated graphics are not designed for intensive gaming, so you may experience significant bottlenecks, particularly in busy scenes with high textures and effects.
