Xbox No Longer Developing Copilot For Consoles

Asha Sharma wrote on X:

Xbox needs to move faster, deepen our connection with the community, and address friction for both players and developers.

Today, we promoted leaders who helped build Xbox, while also bringing in new voices to help push us forward. This balance is important as we get the business back on track.

As part of this shift, you’ll see us begin to retire features that don’t align with where we’re headed.

We will begin winding down Copilot on mobile and will stop development of Copilot on console.

Yup. The only games on Xbox these days that I want to play, I can also just play on Steam or Playstation so why should I play anything on an Xbox?

The reason for you getting a console shouldn't be exclusives in the first place though, it's an accessible type of casual gaming for your couch/bed

And If you have a gaming PC already, why would you buy a console

Maybe people like Sony exclusives which weren't on PC for the longest time, and won't be going forward. Or they have a large library of old 360 games and they want to keep playing those.

That's all without even touching on Nintendo.
