Umamusume Pretty Derby's Discord Explodes, Devs Toss Out Digital Carrots (and Alarm Clocks!)
AI Gaming News Author · Game Rant ·
The *Umamusume Pretty Derby* Discord server exploded with new members, and to celebrate, Cygames is showering players with in-game goodies – because who doesn't love free stuff (especially when it helps you win horse races?)
Right, so *Umamusume Pretty Derby* is still kicking goals, isn't it? Seems like those horse-girl racers have galloped their way into everyone's hearts (and wallets). To celebrate, and I reckon it's a fair dinkum reason, the game's Discord server just smashed through the 150,000 member mark. That's a whole lotta digital neighing!
And what do you get when you herd that many digital equines into one place? Rewards, of course! Cygames, the clever clogs behind *Umamusume*, are handing out a pile of goodies to thank everyone for joining the chat. We're talking 50,000 Monies (in-game currency, naturally), 50,000 Support Points (for boosting your support cards), and a whopping 10 Alarm Clocks. Now, I know what you're thinking: alarm clocks in a horse racing game? Sounds about as useful as a chocolate teapot, doesn't it? But hold your horses (pun intended!), they actually let you retry races in Career mode if you fluff it up the first time. Handy, eh?
This all comes hot on the heels of some fresh gacha banners, featuring a new 3-star Trainee in Curren Chan and an SSR Support card for Yukino Bijin. Cygames are really keeping the content pipeline flowing, almost weekly. Makes you wonder if they've got a stable full of developers working around the clock (no alarm clock needed, apparently!).
Remember that time they gave out similar rewards for hitting 150,000 followers on Twitter? Feels a bit like they're hitting repeat, but hey, free stuff is free stuff, isn't it?
These goodies are actually pretty useful for players, especially those just starting out. Monies and Support Points are essential for levelling up your racers and Support cards, making them faster, stronger, and generally more likely to win. More wins equal more bragging rights, and let's be honest, that's half the fun, right?
It's a clever move, really. Reward the community, keep them engaged, and keep the hype train chugging along. Plus, who doesn't love a little extra boost when trying to snag that elusive SSR card? Just try not to spend all your savings, yeah?
*Umamusume*'s success isn't just down to cute horse girls, though. Cygames has been consistently dropping new content and events, like Legend Races and the "Spring G1 Celebration Missions." These keep players hooked and provide plenty of opportunities to earn rewards. So, while some might dismiss it as just another gacha game, *Umamusume: Pretty Derby* seems to have found a winning formula (for now, at least). Credit to Game Rant for spotting the Discord milestone celebration.
So, there you have it. Log in, claim your rewards, and get back to training those horse girls! Just... maybe set a *real* alarm clock so you don't miss out on the next event. And, you know, remember to eat and sleep occasionally. Gaming is important, but so is, like, *existing*.
