As spotted by The Verge, Google has confirmed on its support pages that the update will begin rolling out globally on September 23, with the EU and UK following on October 1. The new profile is being integrated directly into the Play Store, giving you quicker access without relying solely on the separate Play Games app. We managed to activate the feature in the latest Play Store beta ahead of launch, showing how it all comes together in practice.
