Xbox September update lets you stream games to Discord
It seems as if Discord is taking one more step to solidify its platform as “for the gamers,” thanks to Xbox’s September update, which allows players to stream their favorite games to their friends on Discord. In order to stream from your Xbox to Discord, you’ll need to ensure that your accounts are linked. If they are, then you can not only stream via Discord, but you can join voice channels directly from your console.
In addition, the most recent update brings with it the inclusion of Variable Refresh Rate (VRR), a feature that can give players “a smooth, artifact-free experience” while they play their favorite titles, according to the official blog post detailing the September update.
