PS5 players will soon be able to join Discord voice chat directly from their console

[Cpvr]

In recent years, we’ve partnered with Discord to introduce more ways for players to connect with their friends and communities across Discord and the PS5 console. Since we first introduced Discord voice chat on PS5, players have joined a Discord voice chat on PS5 more than 290 million times to hang out with friends in Discord voice channels while gaming.

Today, we’re pleased to share that we’re starting to roll out the ability for PS5 players to join Discord voice chat directly from the PS5 console, without relying on the Discord PC or mobile apps to initiate the connection.

This is a nice new feature. I can communicate with people who play on PS5 exclusively through Discord on my PC. It makes cross-platform communication easier & more convenient, especially for those without a PC.

This is a good news and I've actually been waiting for this feature for so long . So, it’ll make be easier to actually coordinate with my friends who only play on the console.

That’s awesome! Are there any specific features or improvements to the Discord integration that we should be aware of? Also, how does the performance compare to using the PC or mobile apps?
