Will Delphi be available as both EM64 and IA64?

I have seen many 64-bit applications come in two 64-bit versions. One is x86-64 and other is IA64. Will Delphi's 64-bit version also have this?

Delphi 64 bit will target x86-64, a.k.a. AMD64, a.k.a. EM64T.

It will not target the Itanium architecture IA64.

I consider the possibility of Delphi ever supporting Itanium to be vanishingly small since the Itanium platform has been deprecated.

David is right. x86-64, AMD64, EM64T will be the 64bit CPU supported initially. Windows 64bit will be the initial OS supported.
