They practically already have.
Arc came out years late and was a flop. It still can't run a huge amount of games, and where it does, it competes with cards on an inferior node with much smaller die sizes than Arc, that have better stability and significantly lower power consumption.
Battlemage was supposed to be "high performance" (although in Intel speak that likely means mid range at best), but most of the SKUs got cancelled.
They're bringing Battlemage as a graphics tile on their mobile CPUs. But I wouldn't be surprised if they also did a desktop release, like AMD did for the 6400/6500 XT.
Going against AMD/Nvidia in the desktop graphics space is on the back-burner. Hopefully they'll come back to it if they improve their drivers enough, and get better at GPU design.
