Turn off “game center on/off” notification banner

Ever since updating to iOS 26.1, every time I open a game or toggle between apps to an already open game, a notification banner reading “game center: on/off” displays and is highly disruptive.

How do I turn this off? I disabled Game Center notifications and deleted+re-installed the game apps.

iPhone 15 Pro, iOS 26

To the best of my knowledge, you can't prevent that. However, it should go away within a few seconds of opening the game.
