Called Open Saves read from google's blog:

Enter Open Saves, a brand-new, purpose-built single interface for multiple storage back ends that’s powered by Google Cloud and developed in partnership with 2K. Now, development teams can store game data without having to make the technical decisions on which storage solution to use, whether that’s Cloud Storage, Memorystore, or Firestore.

“Open Saves demonstrates our commitment to partnering with top developers on gaming solutions that require a combination of deep industry expertise and Google scale," said Joe Garfola, Vice President of IT and Security at 2K. "We look forward to continued collaboration with Google Cloud.”

Game development teams can save game data against Open Saves without having to worry about the optimal back-end storage solution, while operations teams can focus on needed scalability and storage options.

Open Saves is designed with extensibility in mind, and can be integrated into any game—whether mobile or console, multiplayer or single player—running on any infrastructure, from on-prem to cloud or a hybrid. The server is written in Go, but you can use many programming languages and connect from client or server since the API is defined in gRPC.
