Discord Opening Platform to Third-Party Developers for Embedded Games and Apps
-
Discord is letting third-party developers create games and apps to be embedded and played within Discord starting March 18.
-
This expands on Discord's existing Activities feature that launched in December with 19 initial embedded game experiences.
-
Discord is providing developers with an Embedded App SDK to build these new embedded games and apps.
-
Discord wants to become the best place for developers to build, share, distribute, and monetize their work.
-
Discord is experimenting with letting users associate games/apps with their accounts so they can be used outside of servers, with developer approval.
