Discord Activities: Embedded Games and Watch Together in Voice Channels

What Changed

Discord has expanded the range of Activities available within voice channels. Activities are embedded mini-applications — including games and watch-together features — that allow users in a voice channel to play or watch content simultaneously without leaving Discord. The expanded library includes a wider range of games and third-party integrations. This creates new interaction patterns: users may spend extended time in shared voice channels with others, including strangers on public servers, engaging in activities that feel more casual and social than text chat. Parents should be aware that Activities increase the time young people spend in voice channels and deepen the social experience of server membership.

What to Review

• •Check which Discord servers your child has joined — Activities are available in any server's voice channels, including public servers with unknown members.
• •Review your child's voice channel usage in the Discord activity summary via Family Centre.
• •Discuss with your child what Activities they are using and with whom they are playing or watching.
