Discord integration

Your Discord and your game servers, talking to each other

Takaro connects your game servers to your Discord server. Chat crosses both ways, game events land in the channels you choose and roles stay in sync, with no bot to build or host.

Included on every plan, the free one too.

Discord

The bridge between your community and your servers.

Your community lives in Discord, your players live in the game. Takaro connects the two, so nobody misses what happens on the other side.

  • Chat flows both ways: game chat shows up in a Discord channel, Discord replies show up in game.
  • Events in the right channel: joins, leaves, bans and more, routed per channel and per server.
  • Roles that match: players link Discord to their profile and roles can sync between the game and Discord.
  • No bot to build: connect your Discord server from the dashboard and pick the channels.

Event notifications

Game events, in the channel they belong in

Pick the channels per game server. Your players see the action; your admins hear about problems first.

  • Joins and leaves

    Who connected to which server, as it happens.

  • Game chat

    Game chat in the channel you pick, with filters for what crosses over.

  • Server status

    Restarts, updates and errors, so admins hear first.

  • Shop and economy

    Purchases and transfers from the in-game shop.

  • Player milestones

    Let the community know when players earn achievements.

  • Your own events

    Custom modules can post embeds and buttons of their own.

Role sync

VIP in game, VIP in Discord

Link a Takaro role to a Discord role and Takaro keeps them the same. Give a supporter VIP once and they get the perks in game and the colour in Discord.

  • Players link Discord to their Takaro profile, so Takaro knows who is who.
  • You pick the source of truth: Takaro-driven for game permissions, Discord-driven for Discord-first communities.
  • Only mapped roles sync, and a scheduled check catches anything missed.

Discord commands

Run your servers from a Discord channel

Modules can answer slash commands and prefix commands in Discord, with role requirements for who may use them. Check who's online, look up a player or trigger a server action without opening the game.

FAQ

Discord integration questions

Something else on your mind? Ask in our Discord or read the docs.

How do I connect my game server to Discord?

Connect your Discord server from the Takaro dashboard (Settings → Discord), then install the Chat Bridge module on your game server and pick a channel. Takaro's bot does the work, so there is no bot to write or host. The Discord guide has every step.

Do I need my own Discord bot or token?

No. You add the Takaro bot to your Discord server from the dashboard and grant it the permissions it asks for.

Can game chat and Discord chat go both ways?

Yes. With the Chat Bridge module, game chat shows up in a Discord channel and messages in that channel show up in game.

Can I sync Discord roles with in-game roles?

Yes. Map a Takaro role to a Discord role, have players link their Discord account and turn on role sync. You choose the source of truth: Takaro or Discord. Only roles you map are synced.

Can different game servers use different Discord channels or servers?

Yes. Each game server has its own channels and its own chat bridge, and different game servers can connect to different Discord servers.

Is the Discord integration a paid feature?

No. It is included on every plan, including the free one. See pricing.
