From PC beta to native console deployment 🚀
The platform, which began its beta phase in 2025, has been refined based on community feedback. Its integration into consoles requires specific optimization for Series S/X hardware, ensuring quick and smooth access during gameplay. The assistant works by analyzing the game's context in real time to provide guides, answer specific questions, or suggest tactics, without needing to leave the session.
