Last year, Discord and Xbox announced that Voice Chat would be coming to Xbox. Today, the partnership continues as both parties have announced that the ability to stream your Xbox Series X|S or Xbox One games directly to Discord is coming.
In the official press release, Discord said “Streaming your game on Discord is a great way to socialize with your buddies. Some use it to show off a new party game to their friends, while others stream single-player games to share their character builds and spread the word on hidden areas. The more hardcore players even use streaming to show off their competitive skills and clutch plays in multiplayer matches! ”
In order to stream directly to Discord, first players have to connect their Xbox profile to Discord if it hasn’t been done already. Then, you can press the Xbox button, open the Parties & Chats tab, select Discord, and then scroll to one of your available servers and join a Voice channel. You’ll be placed in that community’s channel. Select “Stream your game” when you’re ready to start streaming.
You can also stream to a Discord DM or Group DM. Join your DM call on desktop or mobile, then use the “Transfer to Xbox” button to move your DM conversation to your Xbox Series X|S or Xbox One. Once moved over, the “Stream your game” option will appear in the Xbox guide, just like if you were in a server call.
The feature is currently available for Xbox insiders only. It will come to all Xbox gamers soon.
