Discord announced today that it is finally adding voice chat integration to Xbox consoles.
The addition means that Xbox Series X/S and Xbox One owners will be able to talk to their friends on Discord Voice chats from their consoles, rather than having to use other devices.
In a press release, Discord notes that Xbox Insider will be able to use its voice chat feature on their consoles, starting today. The feature coming at a later date for all users. As Discord notes, the feature has been widely requested by users. Previously the company allowed Xbox owners to connect their accounts, but could only be used to display information, like Gamertags.
Discord also confirmed that Discord Voice chat on Xbox will allow users to transfer their voice call from the app (Desktop or mobile) directly onto their consoles using the Xbox mobile app. As you can see from the image below, the transfer process looks pretty straightforward.
Discord integration announcement for Xbox came roughly seven months after the company announced that it was finally allowing PS4 and PS5 owners to connect their PSN accounts to their Discord profile.
