Step 1: Launch the game and wait for the lobby to load. Then, head over to the package symbol located inside the 'Inventory' tab located at the bottom right of the screen.

Step 3: The next screen will prompt the player to enter a new username.

Step 4: After entering the new name, press the 'OK' tab to confirm and save the changes.

Players should note that the game allows up to one name change per day. To change the username again, players will have to purchase the rename card from the shop for 180 UC.
