Google search finally adds information about video games

Google has expanded its search engine with the capability to recognize video games. If your query references a game, a new Knowledge Graph panel on the right-hand side of Google’s search results page will offer more information, including the series it belongs to, initial release date, supported platforms, developers, publishers, designers, and even review scores.

For those who don’t know, Knowledge Graph is the company’s project for mapping out the real world, be it physical objects, important landmarks, or famous people. It doesn’t just power Web searches; mobile and voice searches tap into it, too.
