Sony has finally announced that the PlayStation 5 will officially start supporting voice chats on Discord through the PS5 itself. This is great news for everyone who plays crossplay titles with their friends on both PC and Xbox. Discord is a really handy tool for convenient group calls and today we’ll tell you how to join Discord Voice Call on PS5.
How to Link Your Discord Account to PlayStation Network
Before joining any voice chats on Discord, you first need to link your PlayStation Network accounts to your Discord accounts. Let’s go over how to link individual PSN accounts to Discord:
- Open Accounts Management
- Select PlayStation Network and then Linked Services
- Select Discord from the list and follow the instructions.
You can also do this directly through Discord instead of your PlayStation 5.
- Launch Discord on any platform.
- Navigate to User Settings > Connections > Add and select the PlayStation Logo
- Log in with your PSN account.
You can also unlink your accounts through these same menus. Each PS5 account can be bound to a different Discord account.
Note that this feature is currently slowly being rolled out in various PSN regions across the world. If your region doesn’t support a PSN account, you might not be able to use this feature. The rest of the PSN users will gradually receive access to this feature, so just wait and connect your PSN and Discord accounts before the official release.
