PSA: We're taking game worlds offline urgently as we're investigating an issue with player display names. Apologies for any inconvenience caused.

We've also turned off the ability to change your display name both in-game and via the website.

The team are hard at work to resolve the issue and we'll keep you updated on our progress. Thank you for your patience.

UPDATE 15:10 - The team is hard at work investigating the issues with player display names. To resolve the issue, we'll be reverting all display names back to their previous state (from 9:30AM GMT today). Apologies for any inconvenience caused. We are exploring options to return any name changes that were used during this time. The next update will be ~4pm GMT.

UPDATE 15:57 - The team is in the process of testing the fix to ensure it's working correctly. We will likely have another update in ~30 minutes. Thanks for your patience.
