Unity Mirror and Playfab GameServers
Hello,
I have a working multiplayer game and I am now looking for game servers and matchmaking.
But I am not sure if I can use PlayFab game servers with my game. Can someone explain to me how this works and what I need to do on MY side to have my game on PlayFabs game servers ?
Matchmaking seems pretty straight forward but the game server part makes me really nervous.
Like, is it just about a few API calls I need to implement in my already working multiplayer game? Or do I have to do more? What does the game server want from me to have a game running there?
Game servers hosted on PlayFab needs to be integrated with PlayFab systems, and this process is quite straightforward, please follow this tutorial to get started:
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/gaming/playfab/features/multiplayer/servers/
For the integration part, basically the following is what you need to do:
Integrating your game servers with the PlayFab Game Server SDK (GSDK)
Determining required DLLs that need to be included in the asset package
Locally debugging game servers and integration with PlayFab
Additionally, we also have a Unity Mirror Game Server sample integrated with GSDK: https://github.com/PlayFab/gsdkSamples/tree/master/UnityMirror, hope you find it helpful.
