We are excited to announce the update to the Amazon GameLift Server SDK to include support for Go and .NET 6 to integrate with your Windows or Linux game servers. Amazon GameLift is a fully managed solution that allows you to manage and scale dedicated game servers for session-based multiplayer games. With this release, Amazon GameLift Server SDK now supports Unity 2020.3, Unreal 4.26, Go language, and custom C++ and C# engines. 

In addition to making it easier for customers to integrate their Go based game servers with the GameLift service, the updated Amazon GameLift Server SDK for C# now includes two variants: one for game servers built on .NET 4 and another for game servers built on .NET 6. Each of these Server SDKs are built to work with GameLift Anywhere and use the latest GameLift Server SDK 5.0 version. 

Amazon GameLift is available in regions: US East (Ohio and N. Virginia), US West (N. California and Oregon), Africa (Cape Town), Asia Pacific (Hong Kong, Mumbai, Seoul, Singapore, Sydney, Osaka, and Tokyo), Canada (Central), Europe (Frankfurt, Ireland, London, Milan, Paris, and Stockholm), Middle East (Bahrain), South America (São Paulo), AWS China (Beijing) Region, operated by Sinnet, and AWS China (Ningxia) Region, operated by NWCD, and now available in 8 Local Zones in Chicago, Houston, Dallas, Kansas City, Denver, Atlanta, Los Angeles, and Phoenix.
