Xbox broadens its cross-platform push as World of Tanks: HEAT and Activision’s RPG take shape

Xbox published World of Tanks: HEAT today across Series X|S, PC, and cloud as an Xbox Play Anywhere title. The game is pitched as a fresh tank experience built on a custom engine, with a new alternate post-WWII setting that moves away from historical accuracy. Game Pass members can also claim a launch pack with a unique Agent and vehicle skin. news.xbox.com

Xbox’s cross-platform footprint is also showing up on the PlayStation side this month. PlayStation’s June PS Plus lineup includes Grounded Fully Yoked Edition for PS5 and PS4, alongside other monthly games available starting June 2. That makes an Xbox-published game one of the free PS Plus highlights for June. kotaku.com

On the development side, Activision’s Elsewhere Entertainment is hiring for a new multiplayer RPG set in an original IP. The listings point to PvE content, RPG systems, and open-world design work, signaling a break from the publisher’s recent Call of Duty-heavy focus. kitguru.net

How has the team approached bringing this next chapter of the Warhammer 40,000: Chaos Gate universe to XBOX Players?

JVN: Right at the start of development, we made the decision to bring this to consoles, and we’re doing everything in studio with that in mind from day one. We’ve been designing the entire UI system with console in mind, and throughout the whole process, making sure that it feels natural whilst still feeling at home on a PC. The team are basically switching between controller and keyboard and mouse controls constantly, making sure that the experience feels great for both. It looks great on XBOX, we really can’t wait for players to experience this! The team at Complex Games will return with mor

What do Windows Central readers think about AI in gaming?

Copilot for Gaming on PC has also seen a change, becoming a confusing mixture of "Game assist," "Microsoft Edge Game Assist," or both; I can't figure out the reasoning. I plan to revisit Microsoft's gaming AI on PC in the near future to see how (if at all) it has improved since my last test, but in the meantime, I was more interested in what our readers think of AI in gaming. I wasn't just interested in the Xbox and mobile implementations of AI; I asked about opinions on literally any form of AI assistance in gaming, whether it be built-in helpers queried with voice or text, AI monitors that s
