Update 2022.6.21 patch notes
Improving Quality of Life and Putting Community Suggestions into Action
A Streamer Mode has been added. When enabled, room codes are replaced in the lobby with “Click to copy.” This may be enabled or disabled in the General Settings.
Colorblind Options have been added. When the color names are enabled, they will show next to the players during meetings and below the player during games.
Account connectivity for all platforms (excluding PlayStation and Nintendo) has been restored. We’ve deleted Guest Accounts, so follow the in-game instructions carefully. This should make the process simpler. More information about the new Account Linking may be found here.
Players can now see the map from the voting screen.
Friends List – The latest display name of a player will show above the Friend Code.
We certainly have a lot more in the works for the future, so keep playing the game and telling us how you feel (nicely, pleaseeee), and I promise we’ll listen.
But I’m not done with this article yet – now for the extremely lengthy list of game fixes.
