As it was the go-to voice and text-chat platform for gamers the world over, it was rather surprising how long it took Sony to add Discord integration for the PlayStation 5. Initially, there wasn’t a native Discord app you could use on the console; however, an update made it far easier to chat with friends straight from your console while you’re playing the best PS5 games.
How to use Discord on PS5
As long as your PS5 software is up to date, you can get started chatting using Discord integration once you link your accounts to make it easier to chat with friends on the best multiplayer games on the PS5.
Step 1: Go into Settings > Users and Accounts > Linked Services and select Discord.
Step 2: Follow the link or scan the QR code to open your Discord mobile app.
Step 3: Input the code on from your PS5 in the app to authorize the login.
Step 4: To start a chat, simply open up your Game Base station and choose the Discord tab.
Step 5: Choose the Discord server or group you want to join.
Step 6: If another user on Discord calls you, you will get a notification and can join the call directly through it.
This will work with all the best PS5 headsets or even earbuds. If you need a hand figuring out how to connect your AirPods to PS5, we can help you out there as well.
