Microsoft has been steadily updating its Game Assist browser for Windows 10 and 11's Game Bar (announced in November 2024), bringing users new features and improvements on a monthly basis. April is no exception, and this month's update is now available for users in the Stable and preview channels. In the Stable channel, Game Assist received support for new games, such as Assassin's Creed Shadows, Monster Hunter Wilds, Split Fiction, World of Warcraft, and Genshin Impact. It now defaults to desktop versions of websites, supports the F6 key to set focus on the address bar, opens links from form sidebar apps without switching to desktop Edge, and more. In the preview channels, Game Assist now features improved looks that match the Game Bar's recent redesign. You can now view favorites and history, use extensions from context menus, and more. A neat new addition is the Ctrl + G shortcut, which pastes the name of the game you are currently playing. Here is what is new in the Stable release: Those testing Edge in the Canary and Dev Channels have a separate changelog: Microsoft Edge Game Assist is currently available in preview. You can try it out on your system by heading to Edge Settings > Appearance > Game Assist (Preview). After that, open Game Bar and click Game Assist from the list of available widgets.
