This can manifest as an error message indicating the address is improperly formatted, doesn’t exist, or is not associated with an existing account. For instance, a user attempting to reset their password might encounter this if they inadvertently mistype their email address or if the address they’re using is different from the one used during the initial account creation.

It allows players to recover lost passwords, receive important account updates, and participate in promotional offers.

A valid email address acts as a primary verification method, ensuring account security and facilitating communication between the game’s developers and the player base.
