A nickname is the name a player chooses when registering an account. It can be changed for X-crystals at any time.

Before you change it

• Think of a nickname that follows the game rules and is not taken yet. If it is taken, the window tells you so.
• Make sure you have 450 X-crystals on your account: that is the price of the change.

How do I change my nickname?

1. In the main menu, click on your rank icon or your nickname to open your profile.
2. Open the ACCOUNT section.
3. Click change next to your nickname.
4. Enter the new nickname in the Change nickname window and confirm with Change.

The X-crystals are taken from your account and a notification says "You've successfully changed your nickname to …!".

Only the name changes: your rank, experience, crystals, garage, statistics and friends list stay as they are.

What a nickname may look like

• 2 to 20 characters
• Latin letters, digits, hyphen (-), underscore (_) and dot (.)
• It starts and ends with a letter or a digit, and two of these characters never stand together
• Not digits only
