The future of the Intel Arc B770 GPU was already being called into question earlier this year, even before Intel and NVIDIA partnered up for what Intel called "complementary" GPU options. After all, reports as early as March 2025 claimed that the high-end Battlemage GPU project had been cancelled in 2024 already. More recently, however, rumors have surfaced about a potential late 2025 release for Intel's Arc B770 GPU . Now, a recent discovery in an Intel engineering graphics driver (shared by @GOKForFree on X ) seems to substantiate the theory that Intel might have one more Arc Battlemage GPU in the chamber.

Specifically, the driver makes mention of the BMG-G31 GPU die—which is the silicon associated with the high-end Intel Arc B770 GPU—and four potential configurations of the high-end Xe2 die. If the leak is accurate, it would indicate that there are three "Pro" GPU configurations and a single consumer GPU—rumors suggested 32 Xe2 cores with 16 GB of GDDR6 memory on a 256-bit bus—spawn from the BMG-G31 die. While it makes sense that there would be multiple professional configurations—perhaps with slightly different NPU, processor, and memory configurations—it makes sense that the remaining consumer GPU would be the rumored Arc B770. Whether the mention of the new GPU indicates that B770 will eventually launch, or if Intel had simply included it in the driver from the start of development, is unclear, but it does suggest that there is significant progress toward an Arc B770.
