Unlock, Level Up, Flex: Discord Profile Badges Got an Upgrade

Your profile already says a lot about you: your pfp, your decos, the bio you agonized over writing for way too long. But some of the best stuff on your profile is something you earned, and that just hits different.

We're talking about badges, those little icons right under your name that are basically a highlight reel of your Discord life. Maybe you've got the Quests badge. Maybe you're still proud of that Early Supporter badge. Or maybe you've stumbled onto someone's profile that's covered in badges you've never seen before, and you’re just squinting at them like they’re hieroglyphics.

Up until now, your best option was probably just DMing them and asking, which, respect, but there’s an easier way now.

Meet the new badge directory: one spot to browse every badge on Discord, including 4 shiny new ones to unlock, level up, and flex.

Every Badge, All in One Place

The badge directory is where every badge, both unlocked and soon-to-be-unlocked, lives. Next time you're looking at someone else's profile or just admiring your own, click into any badge to see exactly what it takes, or check your progress if you're already chipping away at one. Badges you've started move to the top so that you're never guessing what's next.

Rare badges come with a color-coded rarity label (Rare, Epic, Mythic) that tells you how special the badges you've unlocked are. Click on any badge on your profile, or someone else’s profile, to open up the directory. Or just use this big button:

4 New Badges You Might Already Have

We're not asking you to do anything wild for these. If you've played games or streamed on Discord in the last couple years. Just, you know, keep doin' what you're doing:

  • Game Time, for hours played. Proof that your "one more game" has never once been one game.
  • Game Variety, for the number of games played. Your backlog has a backlog, and honestly, we respect it.
  • Streaming, for hours streamed to friends. Someone's gotta watch you rage-quit; might as well get a reward for it.
  • Account Age, for sticking around. You were here before it was cool. You were also here after, because it's you who made it cool in the first place.

All 4 of these new badges are completely free to unlock, and we've already got a squad thinking up even more badges to add, so take a peek at your badge directory from time to time!

Your Profile, Your Rules

By default, your 6 most recent badges appear first, and everything else lives in an expandable list because nobody wants their profile to turn into a badge bulletin board.

Not feeling a badge? Hide it*. If you’ve got Nitro, you can also drag your favorites up to the front.

Don't have any profile badges? LOOK AGAIN. If you’ve been gaming, streaming, or just hanging around a while, those new badges might already be sitting on your profile.

Use the big button below, or hop on over to your profile, tap or click any of your badges to open the badge directory, and see what you're already close to unlocking. Got questions? Check our FAQ for all things badges.
