Many of us have used a search engine at some point in our lives to find ways to get an edge in our favorite games.

But we’ve never had something quite as special as the new AI-powered Bing as our gaming co-pilot and its wealth of tips, trivia, and technical know-how. With the new Bing you get better search, more complete answers to your gaming questions, a new chat experience to explore deeper, and the ability to create content.

“Tell me about…”

There are so many unique games to experience on console and PC today. While there’s a lot of information available about which games are the best, sometimes our tastes and what we’re in the mood for might be a bit more specific. Bing can help you distill this down as well, either from the look of a game, who is featured in it, or how long it takes to finish. Here’s a few of the examples to try yourself:

  • “Tell me about the best cyberpunk-style role-playing games on Xbox.”
  • “Tell me about the best action games that are 10 hours or less to play.”
  • “Tell me about the best games with a female protagonist on Xbox.”

“What’s the best ______ for me?”

Strategies come in all shapes and sizes for games, and it’s not hard to find opinions on what the best gear loadouts, characters, and skill tree selections are. But are they the best choices for you? You can start with a basic question, but it’s the follow up interaction which will allow Bing to guide you towards the best choices on how to spec out, or even which games to check out.

 Here’s what we asked:

  • “What loadout should I use in Warzone 2.0 multiplayer?”
  • “What is the best Overwatch 2 character for me?”
  • “What are the best perks to use in Cyberpunk 2077?”
  • “What Xbox Game Pass games might I enjoy?”

“Where can I find…?”

Bing can help you find a lot of things in your favorite games, like where every secret weapon location is in Fortnite, where the Tall Tales journals are in Sea of Thieves, and it can even help you find your car keys (sort of). But what if what you’re looking for isn’t immediately coming to mind. You know the type, like that one quest where there’s that guy who did that one thing with the fire sword that one time? To start drilling this down to help us find the right answer, we asked:

  • “Where can I find the blue alien lady in Mass Effect 3?”
  • “Where can I find a list of Fallout 3 quests that begin with the letter J?
  • “Where can I find that one quest where there’s that guy who did that one thing with the fire sword that one time?” (your follow up responses will be crucial on something like this!)

“Give me a recap…”

On top of their incredible worlds, games can have complex and evolving storylines that may seem a little hard to follow while playing them. Not to mention that we must put that controller down at some point and return to the action another day. Sometimes that day turns into months, maybe even years. So, wouldn’t it be nice to get a recap of how far along you are in a game without having to start over? The new Bing is here to help. Here’s a few examples we pulled from:

  • “Give me a recap of Ni No Kuni: Wrath of the White Witch up to chapter 4.”
  • “Give me a recap of Witcher 3 after 20 hours.”
  • “Give me a recap of every campaign storyline in the Halo series.”

“How do I…?”

While Bing can certainly help us with learning how to defeat the baddest of bad guys in gaming (e.g. ‘How do I defeat Malenia in Elden Ring?’), we wanted to take this in a slightly different direction: What if it could help us learn how to create something tangible from our favorite games? Afterall, leaning how to do something new can be one of the most fun things to do in life, and if it comes from the world of our favorite games, even better! So, we took this to task with a few examples that you can try as well:

  • “How do I make a cake like the one that appears in Portal?
  • “How do I make a toy sword based on a design found in Skyrim?”
  • “How do I prepare a meal based on the ramen recipes found in Yakuza: Like a Dragon?”

We hope these broad examples help you kickstart your own questions and interactions with this amazing new tool for everyday use (especially gaming). Don’t be afraid to get weird: What games would Marcus Fenix enjoy? Bing has an answer. You can even ask for your own, personalized music festival-style 3-day lineup… but with games coming out this year in place of musical artists.

Just remember to click through to the source of the information so you can discover new and interesting websites that you may have never visited before. If you don’t already have access to the new Bing, join the waitlist here. Happy searching!
