The PlayStation 5 Integration: Free Discord and Android Voice Streaming on PS5s and PS4 Game Sharing and Transfer with the Discord Mobile App

The Alpha and Skip-Ahead Alpha rings of the console can be used to test these changes, you can browse voice channels across all the server you are on. Connecting no longer requires you to transfer the call with the Xbox or Discord mobile apps, and once your account is linked for the first time, you can freely join straight from your Xbox.

Beta testers will be able to join Discord voice calls on a PS5 console in the US, Canada, Japan, and UK starting today. The integration allows PS5 owners to join Discord calls by linking accounts and then using the Discord mobile app to transfer calls to the PS5. Variable refresh rate support for 1440p is on top of dashboard improvements.

Variable refresh rate support will be given to the PS5 in addition to the Discord support. This means compatible HDMI 2.1 displays can enable VRR at 1440p to benefit from smoother visual performance in games.

The PS5 dashboard will have a new ” friends who play” tile, which you can use to see which friends are currently playing a game.

The PS app currently supports auto-upload for screen captures, but you will soon be able to manually Upload game captures. Sony is also making it easier to access PS4 saved data on a PS5, meaning new games can load old PS4 saved data. There’s also a new option to move PS5 data and games from one console to another using a local Wi-Fi or LAN connection.
