Microsoft Copilot for Gaming AI Game Assistant Enters Beta on Android, iOS

Your AI-companion is here to help you beat a game.

The Copilot for Gaming beta is rolling out on Wednesday to Android and Apple devices. Microsoft’s AI companion is the company’s extension of its Copilot chatbot that focuses on video games, giving players an in-game assistant.

With the Copilot for Gaming beta, players will be able to ask it about their game and request help. It can also answer questions about their play history and achievements. For those who have a tough time figuring out what to play from their backlog, it can also recommend a game.

Microsoft first revealed Copilot for Gaming last year and unveiled more of the AI’s features back in March. One feature of the AI companion not mentioned in Wednesday’s blog post, but discussed in March, was how it can help catch a player up on a game they haven’t played in a while. Microsoft says Copilot for Gaming is to help solve the time management problem gamers tend to have by making them spend less time on certain tasks and more time on playing games. Copilot for Gaming is also supposed to act as a coach to help a player get better at a game.

Getting access to the beta depends on your region and what device you own. The test is happening in the US, Australia, New Zealand, Japan, Singapore and other regions. Those with Android devices can download the beta from the Google Play Store. For iOS device owners, they would have had to sign up for the Xbox beta app on Apple’s TestFlight. There are limited spots, so unless you’ve already signed up, it’s unlikely you can sign up now as it’s currently full. Microsoft says Copilot for Gaming beta will soon come to the Game Bar on Windows PCs.

Microsoft didn’t say how long the beta would last, or if it would come to the Xbox Series consoles instead of having it on a phone or tablet.
