Discord Arrives on Meta Quest VR
1 Jul
Summary
- Discord is now available as a native app on Meta Quest headsets.
- The app offers servers, DMs, calls, and VR-enhanced features.
- Users can stream gameplay and use Meta avatars in Discord calls.
A native Discord application has been released for Meta Quest virtual reality headsets, fulfilling an announcement made at last year's Meta Connect conference. This release offers a significant improvement for users who previously relied on workarounds to access the popular communication platform within VR.
The new Meta Quest app for Discord fully supports existing servers, direct messages, and voice calls. It introduces several VR-specific enhancements, such as seamless integration with the headset's built-in microphone for calls. The interface can also be pinned within the user's play space, ensuring accessibility during gameplay.
Further enhancing the immersive experience, the app allows users to stream their gameplay directly from the Meta Quest device to Discord. It also enables participation in Discord calls using one's Meta avatar, offering a more personalized and integrated social interaction within the virtual environment.
