Microsoft Gaming Copilot AI promises to be your sidekick in Windows 11 games

Microsoft has begun to roll out Gaming Copilot, its AI companion for gamers, to Windows 11 beta testers. The feature is available from the Windows Game Bar and is designed to be the “ultimate gaming sidekick” to help you in tricky-to-navigate gaming situations. Microsoft claims it will make gaming “more seamless” but, like all AI tools, your mileage is likely to vary.

While the feature is just for Windows 11 Insider testers right now, it’s likely we’ll see the feature rolled out to the general public over the next few months. It’s a natural step for Microsoft, a company which has bet big on the AI revolution by ramming it into as many of its tools as possible. You shouldn’t need a top PC from our best gaming PC guide for it to work, either.
