GYP Migration May 2025
Target SDK Versions
Lucra React Native SDK:
>=3.1.0Lucra Android SDK:
>=4.1.1Lucra iOS SDK:
>=3.1.1
Overview
Lucra is launching a major update to the Games You Play (GYP) product. These changes introduce expanded matchup formats, updated models, and revamped APIs to support greater scalability and improved UX across platforms.
Legacy SDKs and API endpoints will continue to function. However, once a client targets the new SDK versions, all related backend interactions must be updated to the new endpoints. Legacy APIs will not be forward-compatible with the new matchup models.
For Web clients, this migration should be completed before July 1st 2025 since there is no available option to utilize legacy Lucra experiences once released
Further, it is recommended to feature gate mobile version updates so that users on older builds (of iOS or Android apps) don't attempt to create and share old GYP matchups against users who have the updated version.
What’s New
Group Play: Two teams with up to 20 participants each.
Free-for-All: Individual players compete—winner takes all.
Updated SDKs: New model structure and API signatures for mobile headless interactions
New API Endpoints: Required for matchups created via updated SDKs.
Legacy matchups remain viewable but are not interoperable with new formats.
