Discord and Xbox just announced a new product integration called Discord Voice. Players will soon be able to hang out with Discord friends on voice chat while playing console games.
The product integration will be launching on Xbox later this month, which means that gamers will soon be able to connect to Discord Voice channels directly from Xbox Series X/S and Xbox One consoles to talk with friends on PC, web, and mobile.
Discord started as a way to bring people together around games, no matter what platform they use. Since 2018, users have been able to link their Discord accounts to their Xbox consoles so friends and communities can see their “Gamertag”, current game activity, and how long they have been playing. Now Xbox gamers will also be able to voice chat with their friends on Discord directly on their console.
