The assistant will also be able to answer questions based on the player's account, history and achievements.

The first version of Copilot for Gaming will be available in English for players over 18 in countries such as the United States, Brazil, Australia, New Zealand, Japan and Singapore, through the Xbox app, available for Android and iOS.

Portugal is not yet on the list, but Microsoft says it has plans to launch Copilot for Gaming in more countries.
