This release refreshes the whole iluminr workspace — a lighter theme and a new navigation. Everything you use is still here; what's changed is how it looks and where you find it. Nothing you've built is affected, and your links and integrations keep working.
New Navigation Menu
iluminr has a new, lighter left-hand menu. The items you'll use most:
- Live events: your event rooms (now decoupled from Microsimulations).
- Communications: as before.
- Microsimulations: upgraded, with My Microsimulations (your content library), Deployments, and an Archive.
- Threats: shown only for organisations with a third-party threat-intelligence integration.
What's changed?
| Previously | Now |
| Activated Multiplayer Microsimulations opened within Event Rooms | Microsimulations has it's own menu; and Multiplayer Microsimulations no longer live in the Event Rooms |
| Event Rooms | Live events |
| Multiplayer Microsimulations and Single Player Microsimulations were separate | My Microsimulations and Deployments house both Single Player and Multiplayer Microsimulations. |
A lighter look
iluminr has moved to a brighter, more open visual system without changing how things work.
For existing customers
iluminr URLs and integrations are unchanged, and the upgrade arrives automatically with the July 2026 release - there's nothing to install or update.
💡Tips:
- Spend a minute in the new left menu before your next deployment — the biggest change is that Microsimulations moved out of Event Rooms.
- Deploying a Multiplayer simulation works differently now — see Get to know the Deployment Portal.
