Discord voice chat is coming to Xbox

. The feature, available now to Xbox Insiders and coming soon to the rest of us, will allow users to connect to Discord voice chats from their Xbox, facilitating all kinds of cross-platform play shenanigans.

The process of connecting your Xbox and Discord accounts and starting up a voice chat is pretty involved. First, you have to download the Xbox mobile app, as you’ll use your phone to transfer Discord calls to an Xbox. Then, you have to connect your Xbox account to your Discord one. If you’ve connected them in the past, the instructions state that you’ll need to do so again to accept the new voice permissions.

Once that’s done, whenever you want to talk with your Discord homies on Xbox, you can start a call on Discord, hit the “transfer to Xbox” button, choose an Xbox console on the Xbox mobile app, and you’re done. You’ll also be able to initiate a transfer from Discord on desktop or the web, and a QR code will be displayed that opens the Xbox mobile app.Xbox users will even see a “Try Discord voice on Xbox” prompt inside the “parties and chats” section of the Xbox dashboard.

Discord voice chat on Xbox works by essentially transferring voice chats from Discord to an Xbox, and it’s supported on both Xbox One and Xbox Series S / X consoles. That means you can’t directly join Discord calls from an Xbox, and there’s no dedicated Discord app on the console. Instead, you always use the mobile app to sling calls across, and they integrate into an Xbox Party-like interface.

“While you are playing on your console, you will be able to see who is in the call and speaking,” explains Eric Voreis, principal program manager for Xbox player experiences and platforms. “You’ll also be able to adjust the sound, and switch between Discord Voice and Xbox game chat.”Microsoft and Discord will start rolling out this new integration to select Xbox Insiders today, and it will expand to more testers in the coming weeks.

Yeeaah

Got to jump through some hoops to set it up, but once you do, it's great. Works great for our Destiny clan which has just as many people on Xbox as it does PC.

I used it yesterday, it works great until your controller dies, it gets really crunchy when you reconnect the controller

Analysis | The biggest competition for PlayStation Plus isn’t Xbox Game PassAnalysis: If subscription services are the future of gaming, modern games are complicating the picture. The premise of the article is good but frankly, the benefit of Game Pass to me is that I don't have to commit to my single player game for the next few months. If I don't like it, I have an infinite and immediate return policy. It's just so much easier to branch out with GP.
