Estimated reading time: 1 minute
Discord integration looks to get even better on Xbox consoles as Microsoft rolls out new features for the Insider program. This week will bring about the option to view Discord streams directly from Xbox to people in the Alpha Skip-Ahead and Alpha rings. There’s no timetable for a general public rollout at this time.
Along with watching Discord streams from your Xbox, Microsoft also revealed that Discord buddies can show up under your Friends list by relinking accounts. They will appear whenever playing a game or joining a voice channel on Discord. This also means Xbox players can jump into a Discord voice channel without having to utilize the app on their smartphone or PC.
