Can the ThinkPad X13 Gen 6 Intel run XCOM 2?
Minimum requirements
Likely meets minimum requirements
Does not meet recommended requirements
The publisher lists GeForce GTX 460 (tier 2), Radeon HD 5770 (tier 2); we compare against the highest-class alternative, so the requirement is tier 2. Intel Core Ultra 5 225H — Intel Arc 130T GPU: LIKELY. Intel Arc 130T GPU is tier 2; the requirement is tier 2. Intel Core Ultra 5 225U — Intel Graphics (Core Ultra U): NEAR_MISS. Intel Graphics (Core Ultra U) is tier 1; the requirement is tier 2. That is one tier below the requirement. Intel Core Ultra 7 255H — Intel Arc 140T GPU: LIKELY. Intel Arc 140T GPU is tier 2; the requirement is tier 2.

How this was judged
Graphics chips are compared by class (an 8-tier rubric), not by benchmark score. The same tier as the requirement is only ever “likely”. Read the tier rubric and its limitations.
