DirectStorage is compatible with Windows 10 devices, but Windows 11 has the latest storage optimizations built in and is our recommended path for gaming.

Personally I don't see this being a huge deal this year, but after that?  I suspect it'll be a few years before any decent number of devs are using it, but once they are it should be excellent.

Maybe but probably not game studio devs still have to support older console hardware but its likely as the older gens get phased out.
