| How PlayBound connects you | Party presence and launch only — multiplayer is the game's own service |
PlayBound helps you find your friends, form a party, and launch Next-Gen Chess together in one click. It doesn't run Next-Gen Chess's matchmaking, lobbies, or game servers — that stays exactly as Next-Gen Chess built it, unmodified. If something about multiplayer itself isn't working, that's a Next-Gen Chess question, not a PlayBound one.

No. PlayBound handles party presence and launching the game together; the multiplayer connection itself is Next-Gen Chess's own official service, unmodified.
