Version V8.0 (Major)
Creation date: October 2nd, 2026
What’s New ⭐
Studio & Universe Management
Studios and Universes can now be fully managed directly from the back office.
Until now, Studio and Universe configuration was handled by the Games2gether team based on client requests. With V8.0, administrators & devs (for some capabilities) gain full autonomy to create, configure, and manage their own Studios and Universes without G2G intervention, except for exceptional use cases.
Here is an excerpt of configuration capabilities made available with this update.

With this release, both navigation settings (side, studio) can now be managed from a single place.
Side Navigation
Organize Universes within the Recommended and Legacy sections using drag-and-drop.
Studio Navigation
Define the display order of Universes for each Studio using drag-and-drop.
