Microsoft said it will add more games during the tests.
Games currently supported for the Microsoft Edge Game Assist feature are:
- Baldur’s Gate 3
- Diablo IV
- Fortnite
- Hellblade II: Senua’s Saga
- League of Legends
- Minecraft
- Overwatch 2

Microsoft Edge Game Assist only supports keyboard and mouse for now. However, Microsoft plans to add support for portable devices and gamepads in the future. In addition, according to details from the company, during the test period, Microsoft will collect feedback and suggestions from players to improve its new feature.
