XR-046: Display Name and Gamerpic *

  • 發行項

Version 2.0, 10/01/2024

On Xbox consoles, titles must use the gamertag as their primary display name.

Based on design choice titles can choose between the player's modern gamertag or their classic gamertag. Modern gamertag is available in the GDK and classic gamertag is available in both ERA and the GDK.

On non-console platforms, while not required, we recommend you use the Xbox network player's gamertag in the appropriate locations within the game title's experience.

The gamertag must be displayed correctly in the title based on the gamertag type used:

Modern Gamertag
Display all 16 characters of the unique modern gamertag, which includes up to 12 characters of the modern gamertag, followed by # and the suffix number (if present). For example: Major Nelson (no suffix present) or Major Nelson#881. If modern gamertags are used, all Unicode character ranges available for modern gamertags must be supported. For more modern gamertag information and best practices visit the GDK development documentation article 'Overview of modern gamertags'.

Classic Gamertag
Correctly display all 15 characters of the classic gamertag. Classic gamertags include only ASCII characters a-z, A-Z, 0-9, comma (,), and space (ASCII character 0x20). For example: Major Nelson

In the GDK these items are returned using the XUserGetGamertag API. In ERA the gamertag is obtained using the GetUserProfileAsync API.

Note

Unicode diacritic support required for Thai and Devanagari, both languages supported by Modern Gamertags, frequently cause issues that are not caught until later stages of testing. If attempting to support Modern Gamertags in your game, plan and test for characters in these languages early.

Test Steps

  1. Locate and view where gamertags are displayed within the title.

Fail Examples
