Sony officially announced the Playstation Discord collaboration in a statement. Sony Interactive Entertainment said in a statement that discord, the popular communications service, has signed a new collaboration that will bring social experiences to PlayStation starting early next year. In order to strengthen this collaboration, SIE also shared that it has invested in Discord in its H series investment round.

PlayStation Discord collaboration announced
Originally published as Discord app in May 2015, as you know, is moving towards being one hand on the PC side. Discord, which has very successful features such as room creation and community management besides voice chat, has also become a popular choice for PC gamers. Here, Sony aims to offerthis application to console owners with its investment in Discord on the Playstation side. As we said, it is not yet clear how the system will be integrated into Playstation consoles, but the statement also stated that this operation will be activated in less than a year.
This statement also raised the community statement on the Playstation side. As you may recall, sony made a statement some time ago and announced that it was removing the Community feature from consoles. This is also considered as a reason for the investment and planning on Discord. Microsoft, on the other hand, wanted to buy Discord some time ago, but that acquisition never materialized. Finally, let’s mention that Discord’s monthly active users are close to 150 million.
