Tech giant Microsoft has announced a new feature for its Edge browser called Game Assist. 

In a post on its website, the company said that this feature – currently out in preview form – is an in-game browser that will suggest tips and tricks to users. It can be accessed via the Game Bar. 

Microsoft says that 88 per cent of PC players flick out of their game to look up tips on their web browser. 

"Based on our research, 40 per cent of PC players look up tips, guides, and other help while they play," the company added. 

"Game Assist makes this easier than ever by highlighting helpful resources for your game whenever you open a new tab. The initial preview is localised in English and supports a selection of popular PC games while we optimise the experience based on your feedback." 

Edge Game Assist currently works with Baldur's Gate 3, Diablo 4, Fortnite, Hellblade 2: Senua's Saga, League of Legends, Minecraft, Overwatch 2, Roblox and Valorant.
