Discord is used by over 200 million people every month for many different reasons, but there’s one thing that nearly everyone does on our platform:play video games. Over 90% of our users play games, spending a combined 1.5 billion hours playing thousands of unique titles on Discord each month. Discord plays a uniquely important role in the future of gaming.

Quests help enhance those activities by giving friends something fun to accomplish, and get rewarded for it!
