"Google might have found a way Gemini could be useful while you're playing games on your phone. The company is introducing a new software overlay today it calls the Play Games Sidekick that gives you access to Gemini Live while you play, alongside a host of other gaming-focused updates to Google Play that could make the app platform a better home for gamers."
"Sidekick exists as a small, moveable tab in games downloaded from the Play Store that you can slide over to show relevant info and tools for whatever game you're playing. By default, that's things like easy access to a screenshot button, screen recording tools and a shortcut for going live on YouTube, but you'll see achievements and other game stats in there, too."
Google introduces the Play Games Sidekick, a software overlay that appears as a small, movable tab in games downloaded from the Play Store. The Sidekick provides quick access to screenshot and screen-recording tools, a shortcut to go live on YouTube, and displays achievements and game stats. Gemini Live integrates with Sidekick to offer AI-driven, swipeable game tips and live guidance using screen sharing as input. Gemini can suggest strategies, respond to minimal context, and generate game-specific humor. The system offers faster, on-device help for quick gameplay questions but does not replace detailed human-written guides.
