Guilded alternative for Discord communities
Guilded was shut down by Roblox on 19 December 2025. The apps show a sunset screen and guilded.gg redirects to Roblox Communities, so this page is a migration guide rather than a live comparison.
Who this is for: Communities that left Guilded for Discord and need progression, quests, and rewards rebuilt.
Is Guilded still available, and what should you use instead?
Who should choose Guilded
Nothing today. Guilded is retired, so any comparison is historical.
Where it falls short: Any current community decision, since the platform no longer accepts logins and cannot be evaluated against live tools.
Verdict
There is no live comparison to make. Roblox shut Guilded down on 19 December 2025 and folded its tooling into Roblox Communities, which only works inside Roblox. If you are reading this because your community used to be on Guilded, the practical path is Discord plus an engagement bot: Discord replaces the platform, and points, quests, and raffles replace the progression and events Guilded gave you for free.
Moving from Guilded to ENGAGE IO
Most servers do not need a clean replacement, because the two tools cover different jobs. These are the specific steps that matter:
- If your community was on Guilded, Discord plus an engagement bot is the closest replacement for scheduling, voice, and progression in one place.
- Roblox Communities is the official successor but only works inside Roblox and cannot serve a general-purpose community.
- Guilded's pre-shutdown export tool is gone, so recover archives from members who exported before 19 December 2025.
- Rebuild progression from scratch on Discord: create a points scheme, map old ranks to point thresholds, then backfill your most active members manually.
Guilded pricing, tier by tier
Guilded is no longer operating. Roblox folded its community tooling into Roblox Communities, which is not a Discord bot and cannot be added to a Discord server.
- Shut down
- N/AFinal release v9.0.8 on 19 December 2025; desktop and mobile apps now show only a sunset notice
