Edit your profile, avatar and cover

Go to Avatar in the top right › Settings (Settings › Profile in the member center), where you can change:

  • Avatar and cover: JPG / PNG / GIF / WebP are supported. We recommend a 400×400 square for your avatar and 1500×500 for your cover. Remember to click "Save" after uploading. If you don't want a custom image, check "Remove avatar (use default)".
  • Nickname, bio, region: In your bio, you can mention your favorite games, your main characters, and when you're usually online. Your region makes it easier to find teammates nearby.
  • Account ID: You can change it, but your old profile URL will stop working immediately, and any links you've already shared won't open anymore, so change it with care.
You can't change your birthday yourself once it's setYour birthday is used to confirm that you're 18 or older (for example, for the 18+ and gambling content settings). If you entered it incorrectly, request a correction via Contact us › Account issues.

Gaming preferences

You can update "Where do you play games?" and "Favorite genres" anytime in Settings › Player preferences, and your recommendations will update accordingly. To control who can see your profile, see Profile privacy.
