According to the official press release shared, Discord is improving the overall experience on Xbox consoles. This includes Xbox One and Xbox Series X/S. The new Xbox Discord update will allow Xbox gamers to watch their friends' streams directly from the console.

It doesn't matter if your friends are streaming games from PC, console or even mobile devices. You can watch any stream if you have an account and log in to the server. This is a handy feature because users were not able to do it before.

Similarly, the Xbox friends list will include all friends chatting in the voice channel on the 'Happening Now' tab . You don't need a mobile phone to join these voice calls and chat with them. Discord finally brings native voice calls to Xbox consoles, allowing users to talk to friends on the server directly from the console!

These updates are rolling out to gamers enrolled in the Xbox Insider program. While there is no fixed release date for this update on other platforms, hopefully it will launch soon. So overall, this is a good update following the arrival of Discord on Xbox and the update allows you to stream games from your console to Discord.
