While we've seen AI Overviews in the United States for a while now, and while Google has expanded them to 100+ countries - they are still not officially launched in many European countries like Germany, Switzerland, Italy and others (Spain also).

Olaf Kopp said he spotted them being tested in Germany, and he posted this screenshot on LinkedIn:
Robert Henniger added that he also is seeing them being tested in Switzerland and shared this screenshot:
And Stefano posted on X that he saw them show up on his father's Android device in Italy. He did not share a screenshot. Update, he sent a screenshot on X:
