NFS Heat, using old format for intel arc driver version check

currently, when i run NFS Heat, the game will give an alert, saying my driver is out of date, while it is not

here is the alert:

according to intel Customer Support Technician and driver team, nfs heat is using an old version format, so the game thinks the driver is old, even if it isn't

After investigating this matter, we want to let you know that this has been debugged by our driver team already and it is in fact an application issue. This error appears because the game is checking the driver version against a very old format, so the driver looks old to the game even though it isn't

this happen every time i start the game, if i click OK, the will play, but will stutter during cutscene or during gameplay randomly, if i click Cancel, the game will close
