PlayStation 5 Adds Direct Discord Voice Chat Integration

Gone are the days of juggling between your phone and console just to chat with friends on Discord. PlayStation 5 users can now start voice chats directly from their consoles, according to a recent announcement from Discord and Sony.

Seamless Integration for PS5 Owners

Starting a Discord call is now as simple as going to the Game Base in the PS5 Control Center and selecting the Discord tab. Gamers can view a list of their servers, see who's in a voice channel, and join in on the conversation without any additional steps. When you receive a notification for an incoming Discord call, you can jump right in with just a push of a button.

Two Years in the Making

The collaboration between Sony and Discord first manifested two years ago, allowing users to see what games their friends were playing. However, the voice chat integration takes the experience to a whole new level of convenience and connectivity for console gamers.

Rolling Out Around the Globe

The new voice chat feature is set to roll out to PS5 consoles worldwide over the upcoming weeks. Regions such as Asia, Europe, Australia, New Zealand, and the Middle East are among the first to receive this update. Meanwhile, gamers in the Americas are patiently waiting for their turn to enjoy this new seamless chat experience.

Stay tuned for more updates on this exciting integration, making game time even more entertaining and hassle-free for PlayStation 5 owners.
