It's no secret that Microsoft has been working very close w/ Amazon & its Alexa services. Alexa is being built into many Windows 10 PCs. Looks like they're looking to take their relationship to the next level. According to some new findings over at Windows Central, virtual assistants appear to be coming to the Xbox One.
Microsoft's gaming console looks to add support for Amazon's Alexa as well as Google Assistant in a coming update. The Xbox already support Cortana via Kinect or headset but doesn't have the number of abilities/skills that the other 2 dominant virtual assistants offer. In regards to if Microsoft will support access to smartphones, Echo devices, or Home devices. It's also worth mentioning, Xbox executive Albert Penello left to work for Amazon to figure out Alexa's presence in gaming.
Based on what skills are made available to Xbox, who's looking forward to utilizing Alexa or Google Assistant for their console?
