◆Steps to make a voice call on PlayStation 5
To enjoy Discord voice calls on PS5, you need to follow the steps of ``Start a voice call on Discord and then transfer the call to PS5''. The specific steps are as follows.

First, start a voice call with Discord and then click the button surrounded by a red frame at the bottom left of the screen.



Next, click 'Transfer to PlayStation'.



Select the PS5 you want to transfer and click 'Transfer voice call'.



When 'Transferring to PS5' is displayed, wait for a while.

If you press the PS button on your PS5 controller and check the menu, you will see an item called ``Discord Voice Chat'' added.



If you select 'Discord voice chat', you can check who is participating in the conversation, as well as perform operations such as 'adjusting the balance between call volume and game volume,' 'mute the audio,' and 'leave the call.'



In addition, Discord also has an official GIGAZINE server , where you can enjoy content such as new news distribution and a forum where anyone can write.
