Direct Discord Calls On PlayStation 5 Coming Soon

Sony and Discord have announced that a new feature that allows players to join a Discord call directly from a PlayStation 5 console will roll out in the coming weeks. This means players won’t need a PC or a mobile to join or start a call while playing on PlayStation 5. It will roll out first in Asia, and then in Europe, Australia / New Zealand, and the Middle East, and the Americas. The feature can be accessed from the Game Base. A video for the feature was also released.

The full details via Sony:

To start, select the Discord tab in Game Base within the PlayStation 5 Control Center and choose the Discord server or DM group you’d like to join. Then, select your preferred voice channel. This will reveal more details, such as who is already in the channel chatting. You’ll also receive a PlayStation 5 console notification when another Discord user calls you, allowing you to join right away.

This update will make it easier than ever to quickly hop into Discord conversations with other gamers. It will gradually roll out over the coming weeks, starting with players in Japan / Asia, followed by Europe, Australia / New Zealand, and the Middle East, and finally the Americas.

Please note that you will need to update your console to the latest system software, and your accounts for PlayStation Network and Discord must be linked. If you haven’t yet linked accounts, you can learn how to do so here.

Profile Share Also Begins Rolling Out Next Week

Starting next week, we’re also rolling out the ability for you to share your PlayStation Network profile on any messaging or social app. To begin, select “Share Profile” from PlayStation App or the PlayStation 5 console to generate a shareable link or QR code. When the recipient opens the link, they’ll have the option to add you as a friend once they’re signed in to PlayStation Network.
