From now on, the users will be able to chat through the Discord Voice channels or group calls.

Without a doubt, this is big for all the Xbox fanatics. Now they have got another reason to brag about the device in comparison to PlayStation.

Well, it seems like they are disappointed already.

On social media, most of the PlayStation players now want Sony to bring Discord to its consoles as soon as possible. Few of the PS owners wondered how Microsoft’s device got it earlier than the PS. On the other hand, Xbox players expressed extreme happiness (well that’s quite obvious).
