    Hi,

    The version of Direct3D a.k.a. DirectX installed on Window 8.1 is 11.2

    Higher rated versions are backwards compatible with games which require previous releases.

    For more details, see: Direct3D 11.2 Features

    In Windows 8.1 the DirectX version is 11.2 regardless of what the dxdiag tool says.

    Click the link I posted to it above and you'll find confirmation of that fact in the Microsoft article.
