As Windows 10 slips beneath the icy waves of being out of support, waving forlornly as it sinks to the bottom of the ocean of obsolete operating systems, it's worth taking a look at how its successor, Windows 11, has matured and whether it's actually any good for gaming.
Windows 11 has a dominant position as the de-facto default operating system for PCs. Buy a new laptop or desktop and there's a 99% chance it will come with Windows. There are a few exceptions, such as the Steam Deck's Linux-based SteamOS, or the small number of machines you can buy without an OS installed, but pick up a gaming PC from any of the major players and you're getting Windows 11.
