Xbox Insiders Can Now Stream to Discord
The ability to stream games from Xbox to Discord is now available for Xbox Insiders. This feature allows users to connect their Xbox Profile to Discord, enhancing the gaming and social experience for players.
To set up the streaming feature, users need to access User Settings – Connections on Discord for desktop or mobile. Within the Connections menu, there is an Xbox logo which users should click on. They will then be prompted to sign into their Microsoft account, after which they will be all set up.
Once the Xbox profile is connected to Discord, users can easily stream by pressing the Xbox button on their controller and opening the Parties & Chats tab on their Xbox Series X|S or Xbox One. From there, they can select Discord, scroll through their available servers, and join a Voice channel. This will place them directly in the community’s Voice channel, where they can interact with other players.
When users are ready to start streaming, all they have to do is select “Stream your game”. This seamless integration between Xbox and Discord allows gamers to easily share their gaming sessions with friends and the wider Discord community.
In addition to this streaming capability, Discord has been working towards creating a more connected and secure experience for its users. Last year, the platform introduced the ability to chat in Voice with friends directly on Xbox. This was part of their effort to facilitate connections between people on different platforms through Discord.
Furthermore, Discord recently launched a new feature called ‘Family Center’, which is designed specifically for teenagers. This opt-in tool allows teens to keep their parents and guardians informed about their Discord activity, while still maintaining their autonomy. The aim is to promote productive conversations between parents and teens about safer internet habits, fostering a mutually beneficial relationship regarding online experiences.
With the introduction of game streaming and other innovative features, Discord continues to be a leading platform for gamers and communities alike. Its seamless integration with popular gaming consoles like Xbox enhances the gaming experience and strengthens the sense of community among players. As Xbox Insiders enjoy this new streaming capability, it is expected that more exciting features will be introduced in the future, further solidifying Discord’s position as a top choice for gamers worldwide.
