Amazon GameLift now supports AWS Local Zones

1

Hello GameLift Devs,

Today, the GameLift team is excited to announce the general availability of AWS Local Zones. With this update, you can seamlessly provide gameplay experiences across 8 new AWS Local Zones in Chicago, Houston, Dallas, Kansas City, Denver, Atlanta, Los Angeles, and Phoenix.

Along with the updated support for Local Zones, we are adding new instance types specifically supported in the various Local Zone Regions, including C5d and R5d instance types. Additionally we are adding support for the next generation C6a and C6i instance types. Amazon EC2 C6i instances are powered by 3rd Generation Intel Xeon Scalable processors and deliver up to 15% better price performance compared to C5 instances for a wide variety of workloads and are ideal for highly scalable multiplayer games.

You can find updated pricing on the GameLift pricing page as well as in the AWS Pricing Calculator.

For more information, please refer to our Release Notes and What’s New post.
