New Looks for Nitro, New Looks for You. Get Yourself a Nitro-exclusive Profile Bundle! (opens in new tab)

Since its launch in 2017, Discord Nitro has evolved from a simple four-perk support model into a comprehensive suite of nearly 20 exclusive features that fund the platform’s free messaging infrastructure. To celebrate this growth, Discord is introducing a major visual identity update that reflects the premium experience provided to its millions of subscribers. ### Evolution of the Nitro Feature Set * The service debuted with four core perks: animated avatars, global custom emoji usage, increased file upload limits, and unique profile badges. * The feature set has expanded to nearly 20 items, including HD streaming for higher frame rates and the ability to use stickers and soundboard sounds across different servers. * Recent additions include "Custom Themes," which allow users to personalize the Discord client UI to match their aesthetic preferences. ### New Visual Identity and Branding * Discord has introduced a "spacey" aesthetic featuring a dark, two-tone color scheme. * The new palette shifts between a deep "blurple" and a fresh teal tint to create a more premium, "primo" atmosphere. * The update includes refreshed character art, such as the mascot Wumpus equipped with a new jetpack, to align with the modern theme. As Nitro continues to expand, these visual and functional updates serve as both a reward for long-term supporters and a way to maintain the platform's core services for the broader community. Users looking for a more customizable and high-performance Discord experience can leverage these new themes and streaming upgrades to personalize their digital workspace.

STAR WARS™ Makes Its Way to Discord (opens in new tab)

Discord has partnered with Lucasfilm to introduce a new Star Wars themed collection of Avatar Decorations and Profile Effects to the platform's Shop. This collaboration draws inspiration from iconic cinematic moments, such as Darth Vader’s appearance in *Rogue One*, to offer high-quality customization options for fans. The release allows users to personalize their profiles with animations that celebrate the legacy of both the light and dark sides of the Force. **Collaborative Design and Inspiration** * The collection was developed through a direct collaboration between Discord’s in-house creative team and Lucasfilm to ensure authentic representation of the franchise. * Visual designs are intended to evoke specific emotional responses, such as the tension of a Sith Lord’s presence or the inspiration of heroic Jedi. * The "Darth Vader Arrives" profile effect specifically references the ominous red glow of the hallway scene from *Rogue One: A Star Wars Story*. **Available Decorations and Effects** * **Avatar Decorations**: The shop now includes specific frame animations such as two variants of Lightsabers, R2-D2 on Tatooine, a Space Battle, the Millennium Falcon Hyperdrive, Yoda on Dagobah, and a BB-8 animation. * **Profile Effects**: These full-profile animations feature specialized visuals including two variants of Lightsaber Mastery, Entering Hyperspace, and the Darth Vader Arrives effect. * These items are designed to fit seamlessly over standard Discord profile layouts to enhance user presence in group chats and servers. **Platform Integration and Access** * The Star Wars collection is accessible via the Discord Shop on desktop or through the "You" tab on the mobile application. * Discord Nitro members receive a specialized discount on all items within the collection, and these discounts also apply when purchasing decorations or effects as gifts for others. * Users requiring technical assistance with these new assets can refer to the platform's dedicated support documentation for troubleshooting. To explore these new customization options, users should navigate to the Discord Shop on their preferred device. Nitro subscribers should ensure they are logged in before purchasing to take advantage of the member-only pricing available for this limited collection.

Make More Closet Space! Nitro Members Can Now Keep Avatar Decoration Quest Rewards for Longer (opens in new tab)

Discord is updating its Quest reward system to provide Nitro members with extended access to earned avatar decorations, which previously expired after a standard two-month window. While all users will continue to receive a minimum of two months of use for any claimed decoration, active Nitro subscribers can now keep many of these rewards for longer, with some even returning from previous Quests. This shift transforms temporary participation rewards into a more permanent benefit for the platform's premium subscriber base. ### Extended Availability for Nitro Subscribers * Most avatar decorations earned through Discord Quests will no longer strictly expire after 60 days for Nitro members. * The specific amount of extra time granted varies between different decorations, with many remaining available as long as a subscription is active. * All Quest participants, including non-subscribers, are still guaranteed the initial two-month period to use their rewards. ### Subscription Requirements and Eligibility * The extension perk is exclusive to full Nitro members; those on Nitro Basic or Nitro Classic plans do not qualify for the extended time. * Users who are not currently Nitro members can subscribe or upgrade their existing plan to immediately regain access to previously collected Quest decorations that have "expired." * Not every decoration is eligible for an extension, as Discord determines availability on an item-by-item basis. ### Management and Returning Content * Discord is retroactively returning several previously available Quest decorations to the collections of eligible users who earned them in the past. * Users can verify the status and expiration date of their items by navigating to Profile Settings > Change Decoration and reviewing the individual item descriptions. * The update is currently live, allowing eligible users to re-equip old rewards or view new expiration timelines immediately. To maximize your collection, check your Profile Settings to see which legacy decorations have returned to your inventory and ensure your Nitro subscription is active to prevent future rewards from expiring.

Find Wumpus in the WEBTOON Universes & Be Rewarded with a Nitro Trial (opens in new tab)

Discord and WEBTOON have partnered for a cross-platform promotional event where users must locate the Discord mascot, Wumpus, hidden within the digital comic *School Bus Graveyard*. By participating in this interactive scavenger hunt through the WEBTOON mobile application, readers can earn a one-month trial of Discord Nitro. This campaign bridges the two platforms by incentivizing comic readership through gamified engagement and digital rewards. ### Scavenger Hunt Mechanics * Participants are required to download the WEBTOON mobile app and navigate to the first ten episodes of the *School Bus Graveyard* series. * The interactive challenge involves scanning comic panels for hidden sightings of Wumpus; once spotted, users must click on the character to "report" the location. * The system tracks unique sightings, requiring users to find the mascot twice to qualify for the promotional reward. ### Rewards and Redemption * Upon successfully reporting Wumpus twice, participants receive a one-month trial of Discord Nitro. * The Nitro trial is versatile, offering users the option to apply the premium subscription to their own account or gift the code to an eligible friend. * This promotion serves as a customer acquisition tool for Discord Nitro, targeting the overlapping demographics of comic readers and gamers. ### Event Duration and Deadlines * The collaboration is a time-sensitive event with a clear window for participation beginning December 4, 2024. * All scavenger hunt activities and reward claims must be completed by December 25, 2024. * The three-week duration encourages immediate engagement from the community before the holiday deadline.
