Discord was built to connect people through gaming; video chat and screen share help achieve this goal and will start rolling out today.
Gamers Ask, Discord Delivers
Video chat and screen share have been two of the most requested features by Discord users, so developing each was a top priority. Discord tries to listen to the community and in incorporate their feedback to add the features gamers want and need on the platform for a truly immersive gaming experience.
Level Up Your Chat Game w/ Friends
Video chat offers gamers a better way to catch up with and build stronger connections with new friends while playing their favorite games. This feature enables users to chat with up to six friends at once without interrupting gameplay.
Screen Share Your Gameplay
Sometimes you just want to show off your skills and other times you need help plotting your next move. Screen share helps get your group of up to 10 friends involved and may even give you an advantage.
The features will be available to a small selection of Discord users on August 10, and will roll out to the entire community over the coming months.
