Discord’s popular voice chat for gamers is no longer exclusive to PlayStation. Messaging has just been integrated into the Xbox ecosystem, the Microsoft console, and more specifically in Xbox Series X and S, the latest generation of consoles, and Xbox One, the company points out in a blog post, broadcast by the specialized media Gamekult .
Discord is a voicemail to chat in a duet, but also to participate in group calls. The advantage of this messenger is that calls are not limited to Xbox gamers: mobile and PC (Windows) gamers can also join.
It is used especially in the case of online multiplayer video games, where partners must interact orally and immediately. Also, messaging is not specific to a game: it allows you to chat even when you are not playing.
To access it, eligible players must link their current Discord account to their Xbox account using a QR code. Microsoft gives the details of this operation in its press release. Currently, this update is only for players registered in the Xbox Insiders program, but it will be rolled out to all players in the coming weeks.
Sony, through PlayStation, signed a partnership with Discord in May 2021, after rumors attributed the voicemail to rival Microsoft. At the same time, the company had invested in the voice chat platform, while remaining a minority shareholder.
