Sony and Discord are getting into business together. Sony has announced a new partnership and investment in the popular messaging and communication app, which will see Discord connect “with your social and gaming experience on PlayStation Network.” The integration between Discord and PSN is expected to happen in early 2022, though exact details on what it will consist of have not yet been announced.
