In 2019, the way in which the platform looks and functions will be forever changed.

What\u2019s new in the beta: To begin with, the library page has seen a drastic shift. Sprucing up the design, the beta library now lets you access your games and see the activity of your friends in one neat section. Additionally, the new library comes with a unique feature that allows you to create your own categories and collections. In the same vein as music playlists, the brand new \u2018custom shelves\u2019 are where you can highlight your favorite titles, line up games of a similar genre, and so on. This customization is all made simpler by the ability to drag and drop games next to one another. Opening the page of a specific game will now treat you to an abundance of information from the recent activity of your friends, to updates from the developers. At the top of the page you\u2019ll also find a new post-game summary that highlights all of the accomplishments throughout your most recent session.
