I'm trying to connect my Xbox to Discord. The blogs I have read have long and complex steps that are a bit confusing. Can anyone help me understand how to use discord on Xbox in simple steps? Please.
 
You need to connect your Xbox to Discord. Link your Discord and Xbox accounts by going to Settings > Account > Linked social accounts on your console. Once connected, press the Xbox button, open the Parties & chats tab, select Discord, and pick your server and voice channel to join the call.
 
Discord really helps you communicate better with your friends while gaming. You can:
  1. Link your accounts
    Press the Xbox button. Go to Profile & system > Settings > Account > Linked social accounts. Select Discord, click Link, and use your phone to scan the QR code.
  2. Open Parties & chats
    Press the Xbox button again. Navigate to the Parties & chats tab and select Discord.
  3. Join a voice channel
    Choose your desired server from the list, pick a voice channel, and you will automatically be connected to the call.
 
Link your accounts first by going to Settings > Account > Linked social accounts on your Xbox. Once connected, simply press the Xbox button to open the Guide, go to the Parties & chats tab, select Discord, and choose a server to join a voice channel.

Let's go through this step-by-step,

  • First link your accounts: Xbox settings > Account > Linked social accounts > Linked Discord.
  • Then switch to the voice channel on Discord from the app or website for your phone or computer.
  • Find the 'Transfer to Xbox', console or similar icon, pick your Xbox console and click OK.
Now you'll be able to talk to others while playing through your Xbox headset.
 
Now, you can even join channels from within the console! Select the Xbox button on the controller, then select the ‘Parties & chats' tab and click on the Discord logo. Select any server you like, choose a voice channel and enter a discussion with your friends without having to pick up your phone.
 
Easy once all your accounts are linked!

All you need to do is connect Discord to your Xbox settings. Once you turn on your Discord voice chat in the mobile app, click 'Transfer Voice to Xbox'. The unity between your headset audio automatically switches and you can get gaming!
