Discord is expanding its reach and integration into new platforms, with a significant focus on virtual reality (VR) environments. This initiative aims to provide a seamless Discord experience within VR headsets, allowing users to communicate with their servers and friends without leaving the VR environment. Key developments include direct app availability on VR app stores (Meta Quest), full feature parity with the desktop/mobile app, integration with VR hardware (microphones), and advanced features like joining video chats as Meta Avatars and streaming Quest gameplay directly to Discord. The app is now available directly from Meta's Horizon App Store, eliminating the need for sideloading.

Discord is now available for direct download on Meta's Horizon App Store for Meta Quest headsets. This eliminates the need for sideloading and provides the full Discord experience, including all servers, DMs, and Group DMs. The integration leverages the headset's built-in microphone for calls and allows users to join video chats as their Meta Avatars and stream gameplay directly from the Quest headset to Discord.
