Of course, this option is enough to help gamers chat with other players, or stream their PC games quickly, without having to load the app separately.
Edge users will also be redirected to the add-on store theme section, where gamers can easily buy and download theme related to games.
The feature also adds a game efficiency mode that reduces the use of browser resources to provide the best experience while playing games, as quoted from GizChina, Wednesday, May 24.
Most importantly, when the gamer activates this feature, it doesn't change the browser experience significantly. Now, Edge for Games is in the early stages of development. It is not known for sure when the company will launch a stable version.
Apart from Edge for Games, Microsoft also launched Productivity Mode to improve PC gaming experience. When this feature is used, the use of the Edge CPU will decrease and then result in improved CPU performance for games.
