Intel has an upcoming graphics driver (30.0.101.1002), which is expected to release tomorrow in conjunction of the release of Intel's newest 12th Gen Core Alder Lake-S desktop GPUs. This new driver includes added support for Intel's integrated Xe-LP graphics, as well as "iGPU support for Alder Lake-P (high-end mobile) and Alder Lake-M/N (low-power mobile)."

Added support for the beginning of Intel Arc Alchemist will also be on board for this new driver, with a staggering 32 brand new IDs for the family of DG2 graphics processors. What is surprising about this development is the amount of DG2 GPUs listed. There appear to be around six times as many IDs for the DG2 GPU family than the DG1 lines that were released over a year ago. As with any future SKU list from a manufacturer, some IDs may never be used, but are added to "future proof" the builds itself so that they can be covered.
