For a message to be sent to a player, there has to be a communication channel available. Right now, we provide Push Notifications and Email as options from PlayStream Actions. Later this year, we'll be providing a persistent connection to the client as an option, so that you can send arbitrary data to it while the player is connected.

Please have a look at our recent blog post on the work we're doing this quarter - we call out the persistent connection in that write-up. https://blog.playfab.com/blog/playfab-roadmap-2018-q3-july-september-edition
