Sony has revealed a new PS5 feature that'll let players generate shareable links enabling others to quickly jump into their multiplayer games without needing to be PSN friends first. Additionally, Sony is working on a Discord widget version of the link feature that, when posted into chat, will dynamically refresh to show the multiplayer session's status - so recipients can immediately see if it's still active and worth hopping into. And that's not quite everything; Sony is also working on making it possible to generate a link that'll point directly to a player's PlayStation Network profile, so the recipient can, say, quickly send a friend request.
