Highlights

• Login Protection Improvements

  We've implemented a lockout feature to prevent brute force logins. This feature is configurable and works by locking the affected account if the number of failed login attempts exceeds a certain count within a set time period on the same client. In such cases, the account owner will be notified of the failed login attempts via email.

  Developers can now activate or deactivate two-factor authentication (2FA) by individual OAuth client in the Admin Portal.

Quality of Life Changes

  You can now ban players by device ID in PlayStation and Xbox. This means that, once banned on a device, a player will be unable to login with any headless accounts on that same device.

  Our third-party entitlement consumption sync reliability now also records transaction logs with UUID, making it easier to track transactions.

• Import and Export Items from a Store

  When switching between testing environments, you can now import and export selected items from a published store, rather than the entire store each time.

• Use the SDKs to Create Lobby partyNotif and Matchmaking Reject Requests

  We've improved our SDKs so you can now use sendPartyNotifResponse and partyNotif to send and receive party notifications amongst party members. You can also send matchmaking reject requests to players through the lobby if there is a player with an empty role attribute trying to enter a role-based game mode.

Breaking Changes
