Microsoft is looking to expand the reach of its Gaming Copilot AI assistant. GamesRadar reported that the company plans to bring the tech to "current-generation consoles" this year. As it stands, Gaming Copilot is available in beta on the PC, mobile and the ROG Xbox Ally.

The announcement was made by Sonali Yadav, product manager for Xbox's gaming AI partner group, at a Game Developers Conference panel, with the assumption being that the consoles refer to the Xbox Series X/S. However, Yadav did not specify which platforms the AI assistant would be available on, saying instead that they will "continue to bring it to more services that players are playing."
