Sony Interactive has finally confirmed Discord integration for PlayStation 5 users, allowing them to access voice chat and other communication features. To begin the setup process, simply connect your Discord and PlayStation Network accounts from your PS5 console, the PlayStation website, or the Discord software on Windows, Mac, or a mobile device.
The voice chat card, a joinable symbol for party members playing a game you may join, is one of the other features. Users can now see which of their friends own the game, who is online, and who is playing in the game hubs. By clicking on the tile, you can view your friends' profiles, see what they are currently doing, and see more engagement possibilities.
A full list of the Discord features available for PlayStation 5 users is available on the Discord website.
