GameCircle FAQs

Note: Starting on September 4th 2018, we are retiring the GameCircle SDK and will no longer accept GameCircle apps. The Amazon GameCircle (2.4.3) and Amazon GameCircle (2.5.3) kits will no longer be included as part of our SDK bundles.

While you will no longer be able to integrate GameCircle in any new games that you plan to publish to Amazon, the in-game experience for games already integrated with GameCircle will remain unchanged.

Q: Can I continue to submit updates for my existing GameCircle app after September 4, 2018?: You will be able to continue submit updates for your existing GameCircle app as long as your app is published and configured into GameCircle before September 4, 2018.
