Microsoft is working on a new artificial intelligence -backed system that will guide and help Xbox players in the game. This assistant, called Copilot for Gaming, will help players download, start and get various information during the game. Microsoft plans to offer Copilot through the Xbox mobile application in the first place. This system will work as a second screen experience and will be positioned as an assistant next to the players.
Microsoft introduces Copilot for Gaming as an assistant that will be with the players during the game. This system of artificial intelligence aims to help them improve their performance by providing strategic suggestions to players. Microsoft’s game artificial intelligence Product Manager Sonali Yadav shared some sample scenarios showing Copilot’s talents.
One of these examples was the experience of a player playing Overwatch 2. Artificial intelligence -backed Copilot, the player made an aggressive moves without teammates made a mistake and made suggestions to correct it. In addition, Copilot explained the powerful and weaknesses of the characters by explaining which heroic choices will be more useful for the team. In this way, players are aimed to make more conscious decisions.
Another scenario was carried out via Minecraft. Here, Copilot answered players’ questions about Crafting. Artificial Intelligence determined which steps to follow by analyzing the screen of the player and provided detailed guidance. In the screening, Copilot’s option to activate cheat commands in Minecraft also revealed that certain production materials can show the location.
Microsoft will start tests in Xbox mobile app
Although these demos reveal the abilities that Copilot may have in the future, it was stated that these features will not be in the first version. Microsoft announced in April that Copilot will begin its first tests, which will be performed through the Xbox Mobile application within the scope of the Xbox Insiders program. Following these tests, Copilot is planned to be integrated into different devices.
Microsoft has prepared an impressive marketing video to promote Copilot for Gaming. However, the scenes in this video are mostly a concept design and it is not clear how to offer an experience in the game. Microsoft plans to shape Copilot’s development according to player feedback.
The presence of this artificial intelligence -backed game assistant in the first place is considered a step to test and improve Copilot’s capabilities. Copilot, which is expected to be expanded to Xbox consoles and PC platforms in the future, can be an important example of how artificial intelligence assistants will play a role in the future.
Microsoft’s new initiative aims to offer a more interactive and personalized experience in the game world. Artificial Intelligence Supported Game Assistants can help players make their in -game decisions more conscious in the future and contribute to the development of players’ strategies, especially in competitive games.
