Matchmaking

We've more or less seen that current PlayFab Matchmaking service doesn't let you join players to an ongoing game server session (without the patch of using backfill tickets).

We would like to have our game hosted in PlayFab but we want the Matchmaking to work more like an io game like agar.io .

How could we implement a custom matchmaking service that does that using PlayFab?

Please note that Matchmaking and Multiplayer Server work independently. Matchmaking lifecycle ends when tickets are matched, hence we recommend using server backfill tickets to add players when the game is ongoing. Backfill tickets also have higher priority than normal matching tickets. Please refer to Using server backfill tickets - PlayFab | Microsoft Docs for more information.
