TP Vision adds automatic game detection for Assassin’s Creed

Amsterdam, November 11, 2026

Personalised picture, sound and Ambilight settings are automatically restored whenever players return to a supported game

TP Vision has launched the automatic game detection feature on selected models in its 2026 Philips Ambilight TV range. Game detection identifies the game being played, creates an individual settings profile and automatically restores the player’s preferences when they return to that title, with the next supported titles being Assassin’s Creed Valhalla and Assassin’s Creed Black Flag Resynced.

“Our P5 AI Processor is already intelligent enough to recognize on-screen content and optimize picture quality accordingly. We have now upgraded its AI capabilities to identify the specific game you’re playing. P5 AI automatically recalls the settings you previously configured for that game, making game-specific personalisation easier than ever,” says Dieter Verlinde, Team Lead Innovation, TP Vision.

How automatic game detection works

When the Philips TV first recognises a supported game on a connected PC, Xbox, PlayStation or Nintendo system, the set creates a dedicated profile without requiring the player to set one up manually. Adjustments made through the Game Bar are saved to that profile.

Players always retain control of their preferences. Automatic game detection does not choose an ideal configuration: it remembers the settings the player selected. For example, players can save a Shadow Enhancer setting to reveal more detail in darker areas, only to then realise that a racing game benefits from a different setup.

Each profile can store supported settings in four areas:

Picture: brightness, colour, contrast, sharpness, HDR and Game Smoothing settings
Sound: bass, treble and other available audio adjustments
Game helper features: colour filter, shadow enhancer and crosshair settings
Ambilight: style, saturation and dynamics

Game mode also reduces the TV’s processing, helping games respond more quickly to player input. Individual profiles address specific game choices by allowing retained preferences to vary between supported titles.

Game detection is limited to supported titles and does not create a profile for every game in a player’s library.

Availability on selected Philips Ambilight TVs und free updates

Automatic game detection is now available on the 2026 Philips Ambilight TV OLED 8 and 9 series, as well as the Philips MLED981 RGB Mini LED Ambilight TV.

Free updates will give players new reasons to revisit both supported games. As of November 5th, rediscover the adventure with free new updates including New Game+ for Assassin’s Creed Valhalla and Black Flag Resynced.
