Google Assistant Updates

The Google Assistant will begin rolling out this week to English users in the U.S., followed by English in Australia, Canada and the United Kingdom, as well as German speakers in Germany. We’ll continue to add more languages over the coming year.

Looks like I still have a few months.
 
^^^ You don't have it in Nexus 6P?
I am wondering how they would add it, upgrade Google App, or with OS update.
 
I think it is coming as an update of Google Play Services?

The Google Assistant will automatically come to eligible Android phones running Nougat and Marshmallow with Google Play Services. You'll also see the Google Assistant on some newly announced partner devices, including the LG G6.

never mind.
 
Right. Google Play Services is a requirement but it will come as an update to the Google app. Iirc I it was a beta of Google App which triggered Google Assistant in some non-Pixel devices. So it might be a combination of an update to Google Play services (which is already in place I think), an update of Google app and a server side switch.
 
got it on my Nexus 6p. Language of phone has to be English(US) otherwise it disappears. Though I am on Beta on Play services and Google app, so can't say if this is a beta rollout or regular one.
 
Google assistant already works with English (India) selected on my OP3T. The response is in the same Indian voice as in Google Now, somethings like sing a song, Trivia games reverts to American English Voice.
