Why do i have a game icon that stays on the status bar when the game is running

[Android Central Question]

When I open this specific game an icon appears in the status bar and won't go away unless I hit force stop on the app. Or if I turn off all notifications for that game. I want the notifications but I don't want the icon to stay in the status bar. Galaxy s9+

Turn off Game Launcher (Settings, Advanced Features, Game Launcher) or remove the specific game from the Launcher list. It only gives you additional tools for gaming, like screen recording, enhanced performance, input block, etc.
