The PS5 Discord Voice Chat update is now available worldwide

New Discord voice chat update for PS5 is now available worldwide. The console’s recent firmware update added support for the features, most notably the ability to join voice calls directly from the PS5.

The new Discord update for PS5 in detail

Players will need to download the latest PS5 firmware update (version 24.04-09.40.00, released June 13) and restart their consoles to access the new Discord features. They can then press the PS button on the console to display the Control Center and navigate to the Discord tab in Game Base.

As previously explained, players will be able to see other channel participants and will also receive console notifications when someone calls them directly, giving them the opportunity to join immediately.

Over the next few weeks, PS5 players will also be able to share their PSN profiles via a link or QR code. The Share Profile option will be available on both the PS app and console, so players in regions where the app isn’t available will still be able to access the feature. The shareable link generated by invoking Share Profile will allow recipients to add the sender as a friend on PSN with a simple click.
