+---
+
+A new release of the Discord Social SDK is now available, with the following updates:
+
+### Lobby Chat History
+
+- Added [`Client::GetLobbyMessagesWithLimit`] to retrieve lobby message histories based on a provided lobby ID, with a
+  maximum of 200 messages and up to 72 hours.
+- Only messages from lobbies the user is currently a member of can be retrieved.
+- DM history will be coming soon too!
+
+### Unified Friends List
+
+- Added [`Client::GetRelationshipsByGroup`] which both logically groups a user’s relationships for the purpose of
+  rendering a friends list and sorts users based on
+  our [Unified Friends List design guidelines](/docs/discord-social-sdk/design-guidelines/unified-friends-list).
+  Before, it was necessary to call [`Client::GetRelationships`] and manually partition each relationship into the
+  appropriate friend group, as well as write your own sorting operations.
+- Added [`Client::SetRelationshipGroupsUpdatedCallback`] which fires whenever a user change occurs which could invalidate
+  a previously sorted friends list retrieved from [`Client::GetRelationshipsByGroup`]. Call
+  [`Client::GetRelationshipsByGroup`] again to maintain an up-to-date friends list.
+- Added `IsSpamRequest` to [`RelationshipHandle`], returns `true` if Discord believes the request to be spam.
+
+### Audio Changes
+
+- A new experimental audio mode has been added for mobile devices which uses standard media audio streams instead of
+  voice-specific processing. On iOS this causes the voice engine to use the Remote I/O Audio Unit instead of Voice
+  Processing I/O and likewise on Android, media stream types are used instead of voice communication types. This mode
+  may be enabled by creating a Client with a [`ClientCreateOptions`] parameter whose `experimentalAudioSystem` 
+  property is
+  set to `AudioSystem::Game`. In this case, you should also set [`Client::SetEngineManagedAudioSession`] to true. **We do
+  not recommend using this for production** - however, if you are interested in trying it out, we are looking for
+  feedback!
+- Added [`Client::SetAecDump`] to enable recording of audio diagnostic information.
+
+### Auth
+
+- Publisher Auth
+    - Publisher Auth is a new feature which makes authorization easier for publishers with multiple games. This is an
+      early release of this feature and only available to a limited number of partners for now.
+    - Added [`Client::ExchangeChildToken`] to facilitate child token exchange for public clients. Confidential clients
+      will require a server to server implementation, but this method may be useful for development.
+    - Invites from sibling applications will be visible to the SDK. They can be identified by the `applicationId` field
+      on the [`ActivityInvite`] payload.
+    - Messages sent from other sibling applications will be visible to the SDK. They can be identified by the
+      `ApplicationId` method on the [`MessageHandle`].
+- Added [`Client::RevokeToken`] and [`Client::UnmergeIntoProvisionalAccount`] to allow games leveraging Public Clients to
+  perform token revocation or unmerge operations directly from clients.
+
+### Android
+
+- The SDK is now compatible with 16KB page size.
+
+### Misc
+
+- Improved activity serialization, avoiding including null/empty keys in the JSON payload.
