I just upgraded my macOS, Xcode and Simulator all to the newest beta version 26.
Then I found two issues when building my app with Xcode 26 and running it on simulator 26.
The game center access point no longer shows up in the app. This is how it's configured in the past. And it still works on simulator 18.4
func authenticatePlayer() {
GKAccessPoint.shared.location = .topTrailing
self.localPlayer.authenticateHandler = { viewController, error in
if let viewController = viewController {
// can present Game Center login screen
} else if self.localPlayer.isAuthenticated {
// game can be started
} else {
// user didn't log in, continue the game without game center
}
}
}
After game ended, the leaderboard won't load. This is how it's implemented in the past. It's still working in simulator 18.4
struct GameCenterView: UIViewControllerRepresentable {
@Environment(\.presentationMode) var presentationMode
...
func makeUIViewController(context: Context) -> GKGameCenterViewController {
let viewController = GKGameCenterViewController(
leaderboardID: getLeaderBoardID(with: leaderBoardGameMode),
playerScope: .global,
timeScope: .allTime
)
viewController.gameCenterDelegate = context.coordinator
return viewController
}
func updateUIViewController(_ uiViewController: GKGameCenterViewController, context: Context) {}
func makeCoordinator() -> Coordinator {
Coordinator(self)
}
class Coordinator: NSObject, GKGameCenterControllerDelegate {
let parent: GameCenterView
init(_ parent: GameCenterView) {
self.parent = parent
}
func gameCenterViewControllerDidFinish(_ gameCenterViewController: GKGameCenterViewController) {
parent.presentationMode.wrappedValue.dismiss()
}
}
}
