Discord Voice Chat Is Coming to PS5!

In a new blog update, PlayStation announced that players will soon be able to join Discord voice chat directly from their PS5 console, without needing the Discord PC or mobile apps. Previously, players had to manually transfer calls from the Discord app on their PC or phone over to their PlayStation 5, but now players will be able to connect to Discord straight from the PS5 console without using any app at all.

When Will Discord Voice Chat Come to PS5?

According to the blog, the update will "start rolling out over the coming weeks" to players in Japan/Asia, followed by Europe, Australia/New Zealand, the Middle East, and finally players in the Americas. So we'll be getting the update in the coming weeks.

How Do You Open Voice Chat?

• Select the Discord tab under Game Base in the PS5 Control Center, then choose the Discord server or DM group you want to join.
• Then select your preferred voice channel.
• You'll also get a PS5 console notification when another Discord user calls you, letting you join right away.
