New features
New recording mode: continuous recording
Most session recording tools force you into a tradeoff:
-
On-demand recording recording: Think browser extensions with screencapture. This gives you control, but you only capture what you remembered to start recording. If an unexpected error happens outside that window, it’s lost forever.
-
Traditional (continuous) recording: Think of tools like Sentry, Fullstory, LogRocket, etc. They capture every user session on the frontend, but this creates its own problems. Teams end up drowning in data, burning storage costs, and spending hours labeling, filtering, and sampling to find the handful of sessions that actually matter.
At Multiplayer, we took a different approach.
Our hybrid continuous mode keeps a lightweight rolling buffer of activity while you work. If an issue arises, you can instantly save the last snapshot, no need to restart or reproduce.
We also auto-save sessions when frontend or backend exceptions and errors occur, so you’ll always have the critical context when something breaks.
Because Multiplayer captures the full stack out of the box (frontend interactions, backend traces, logs, requests/responses content, and headers) you get precise, correlated visibility without the cost and complexity of storing endless noise.
The result: less wasted time searching for the right data, lower storage overhead, and higher confidence you’ll always have the session that matters.

Improvements
-
System auto-documentation, now integrated where you need it most: We’ve evolved our approach to architecture diagrams by embedding service maps directly into full-stack session recordings and the system dashboard. Each recording now includes an exact map of the services and dependencies involved in that session, while the dashboard gives you the full, always up-to-date view of your entire system architecture.
-
Starred recordings for quicker access: You can now star important full stack session recordings and filter by "starred" sessions in the Sessions tab, making it easier to keep track of the most relevant sessions.
