The Multiplayer Services SDK exposes a way for game developers to securely offer increased connectivity between players by using a join code style workflow without needing to invest in a third-party solution, maintain dedicated game servers (DGS) infrastructure, or worry about the network complexities of a peer-to-peer game. Instead of using a dedicated game server, the MPS SDK provides connectivity through a universal relay server acting as a proxy.
