One critical drawback of machines operated under Mac is their poor compatibility with games. Any version of Windows will give a better experience in terms of gaming than Mac could ever.
Whenever a new OS or a new OS update comes, one of the features worth testing out is the gaming experience it provides. Exploring high graphics games is one of the major focuses for most of them. So what’s new when it comes to gaming on Leaked Windows 11 or even cheap Windows keys? Is there any substantive reason to think that gaming on Windows 11 is going to be any different at all from Windows 10?
Future of Gaming on Leaked Windows 11
Windows 11 leak version hands-on experience says that it has brought more aesthetic UI changes. Be it cleaning up of the UI, the look and feel of Task Bar icons, it continues to give Windows 10 feel. Maybe, Microsoft is scared enough to change anything substantial on Windows. The only reason why people are still using this OS is compatibility with 20+ years of software and Microsoft will definitely not play around with the feelings.
The next generation of Windows is expected to be more smooth and faster when it comes to performance. The videos by influencers also reflect the same with the games launching instantly. It takes no time to reach the home page of the game unlike in other versions of Windows. Even in virtual machines/workstations, there is no scope of the game crashing during launch or in between gameplay.
Another point worth stating is the smoothness of Windows 11. One may expect less compatibility of high graphics games while using third-party workstations. But, that is not the case with Windows 11. The overall experience of gaming on Leaked Windows 11 is pretty smooth and steady.
New updates on the Xbox Series

Points to keep in mind:-
One thing that we should keep in mind is that the influencers have used a virtual workstation to install the software and explore. The system has been found to lag by a few seconds on Workstations.

Overall it can be said on initial analysis, that the Windows 11 gameplay experience will be better than Windows 10.
