Sony to integrate Discord chat into PlayStation

PlayStation users could before long have a further way of speaking with just about every other. Sony lately declared that it was partnering with Discord and that it will be integrating the support into the PlayStation Community early subsequent yr. 

“Our aim is to deliver the Discord and PlayStation activities closer with each other on console and cell starting up early upcoming year, allowing good friends, groups, and communities to hang out, have enjoyable, and talk much more very easily when participating in games alongside one another,” reported CEO and President Jim Ryan. 

We are not guaranteed still how this integration will look like. Presumably this implies that there’ll be some kind of Discord chat interface that’ll permit you interact with your close friends on PSN either by means of voice or text, though it is unclear if there’ll be a fully-baked application or a much more minimal implementation.

On prime of that, Sony Interactive Enjoyment manufactured a minority financial investment to Discord as element of its Series H spherical. The assistance, which was popularized by gamers, has more than 140 million users. It was virtually obtained by Microsoft earlier this yr for at minimum $10 billion, but talks appeared to have died down for now.
