Starting today, PS4 and PS5 players can connect their PSN account to Discord. At the outset, that means you’ll be able to display your PlayStation game activity on your Discord profile and let friends there see what you’re playing — something Xbox players have been able to do since 2018. If you like, you can display your PSN ID on your Discord profile to make it easy for folks to add you as a friend there.
To get started, open the Discord app or website on PC or mobile, then go to the Connections section of the User Settings. If you can connect your PSN account, you’ll see a PlayStation icon. Discord is gradually rolling out the feature to everyone, starting with folks in the US, so you might not have access right away.
These are useful features, especially with crossplay becoming more commonplace and friends playing games together on different platforms. If you’re an Xbox owner, for instance, you’d be able to hop on Discord and see if your friends are playing Destiny 2 or Rainbow Six Extraction on PC or PlayStation, and hop in to play with them.
Discord
We’re starting to see the results of a partnership Sony and Discord announced last May. “Our goal is to bring the Discord and PlayStation experiences closer together on console and mobile starting early next year, allowing friends, groups, and communities to hang out, have fun, and communicate more easily while playing games together,” Sony Interactive Entertainment CEO Jim Ryan said at the time. SIE also made a minority investment in the messaging and voice and video chat platform.
Microsoft was previously said to be in talks to buy Discord for at least $10 billion. Though other potential suitors were reportedly interested, Discord remains an independent company. Still, with so many enormous gaming deals being agreed already this year, who knows what the future holds?
In the meantime, Discord and Sony are looking at other ways to collaborate. “We’re excited to continue our partnership with PlayStation and explore how we can collectively create great shared experiences for your friends and communities,” Discord wrote in a blog post.
