Mastering Voice Chat in Monster Hunter Wilds: A Comprehensive Guide

This guide explains how to use and mute voice chat in Monster Hunter Wilds. While multiplayer is a core feature, you aren't obligated to use voice communication. If you choose to, and aren't using external platforms like Discord, this guide will walk you through the in-game settings.

Monster Hunter Wilds Voice Chat Settings

Access the voice chat settings via the in-game audio options menu. Navigate to the options menu (accessible in-game or from the main menu), then select the third tab from the right. Scroll down to locate the "Voice Chat" setting. You'll find three options:

  • Enable: Voice chat is always active.
  • Disable: Voice chat is completely deactivated.
  • Push-to-Talk: Activates voice chat only when a designated keyboard key is pressed. (Keyboard only).

Additionally, you can adjust the "Voice Chat Volume" to control the audio level. The "Voice Chat Auto-Toggle" setting allows you to prioritize voice chat for:

  • Quest Members: Those currently participating in the same quest. This is generally the preferred setting.
  • Link Party Members: Those in your link party, useful for collaborative gameplay or story progression.
  • Off: Automatic switching is disabled.

While the in-game voice chat quality may not match dedicated apps, it offers a convenient built-in option, especially for cross-platform play. For optimal audio quality, however, using a dedicated communication app remains recommended.
