# 1.27.0 - Release Candidate

LLMS index: [llms.txt](/site/llms.txt)

---

This is the 1.27.0-rc release of Agones.

In this release Agones upgrades to Go 1.19 (from 1.17!), so we can take advantage of all the [improvements therein](https://tip.golang.org/doc/go1.19).

This release has lots of important changes including:
- Enable image streaming everywhere by default on GKE
- Provide more flexibility on utilising the cluster autoscaler with graceful termination.
- Reduced logging verbosity by wrapping an error into function.

Check the <a href="https://github.com/agones-dev/agones/tree/release-1.27.0-rc">README</a> for details on features, installation and usage.

**Implemented enhancements:**

- Allow cluster autoscaler to scale down game server pods [\#2747](https://github.com/agones-dev/agones/issues/2747)
- \[GKE\] - Should we enable image streaming everywhere? [\#2746](https://github.com/agones-dev/agones/issues/2746)
- Support Agones on ARM systems [\#2216](https://github.com/agones-dev/agones/issues/2216)
- Update example containers to fix security vulnerabilities [\#1154](https://github.com/agones-dev/agones/issues/1154)
