THE CHALLENGE

Keeping game information consistent across Discord is harder than it sounds.

“What game is this?”

“What game is this?”

A single game can appear on Discord through many surfaces, from shared gaming activity and profile interests to game communities and game profiles.

Discord needed accurate, consistent and up-to-date game information across a fragmented ecosystem of distributors, platforms, release patterns and game types.

THE SOLUTION

THE SOLUTION

Gameopedia added richer game information to Discord’s existing systems.

Discord rolled out the integration in phases. Gameopedia’s game catalog, structured metadata and taxonomy became an additional information layer within Discord’s existing systems, helping create a more complete and consistent unified game catalog.
