How do I check if the current server is the newest server?

If you see Murder Mystery there is a GUI that tells if it is the newest version of the server. How would I achieve this?

You can use the MarketplaceService which you can use GetProductInfo to return data about the asset. One value returned is the "Updated" which is the "Timestamp of the most recent time the author of the asset modified it "

Example:-

local hasUpdate  = false

spawn(function()
	local curTime = game:GetService("MarketplaceService"):GetProductInfo(game.PlaceId).Updated
	while true do
		hasUpdate  = ( curTime ==  game:GetService("MarketplaceService"):GetProductInfo(game.PlaceId).Updated)
		wait(1000)
	end
end)

I hope this helps.
