If no one knows, will someone test it for me? I have something to download for the test.

IIRC The surface pro runs a x86 processor, so yes; it will.

It will, and I can confirm with 1,000,000% certainty it will on a Pro 2

But why ask about a Pro? you planning to get one?

Surface Pro models you can consider tablet form laptops if it makes it easier...

I'm not planning to get one. I have a game that needs to be played on a portable unit and I think a Surface Pro is the only one. If anyone knows of others I would like to know.

You are welcome, in the question of whether a surface can run anything you throw at it, look on the web for videos relating to GAMING and Surface Pro [1,2,3 {omit 1 for the first model}]

You should find videos of all Surface Pros running Battlefield 3/4...
