PS5 Update: Join Discord Voice Chats Directly From Your Console

Seamless Communication for Enhanced Gameplay

Sony has announced a significant update for PlayStation 5 (PS5) users, allowing them to join Discord voice chats directly from their console. This new feature is part of Sony’s ongoing efforts to enhance the social gaming experience on the PS5.

Seamless Integration with Discord

Sony first introduced Discord integration to the PS5 in March last year, but the latest update takes this integration to the next level. With the new feature, PS5 users can now join Discord voice chats without needing a separate device, making it easier to connect with friends while gaming.

How to Join Discord Voice Chats on PS5

To join a Discord voice chat directly from your PS5, follow these steps:

  1. Open the PS5 Control Center: Navigate to the Game Base tab within the Control Center.
  2. Select the Discord Tab: This will be your hub for connecting with friends on Discord.
  3. Choose Your Server or DM Group: Pick the Discord server or direct message group you want to join.
  4. Join the Voice Channel: Find the specific voice channel you want to chat in and select it.

Additionally, if a Discord friend calls you directly, you will receive a notification on your PS5 console, allowing you to join the call instantly.

Gradual Rollout Across Regions

The update will be rolled out gradually over the coming weeks, starting with Japan and Asia, followed by Europe, Australia/New Zealand, the Middle East, and finally the Americas. This phased rollout ensures that the feature is smoothly integrated across different regions.

New Profile Sharing Feature

Alongside the Discord integration, Sony has also announced a new Profile Sharing feature. This feature will allow players to share their PlayStation Network profile on any messaging or social app using a shareable link or QR code. The Profile Share feature will begin rolling out next week.

Enhancing the Social Gaming Experience

Sony’s partnership with Discord aims to make the social gaming experience on the PS5 more seamless and enjoyable. By eliminating the need for a separate device to join Discord voice chats, Sony is making it easier for players to connect with friends and enhance their gaming sessions.
