Want to use or mute voice chat in Monster Hunter Wilds? While it's a multiplayer game, you're not obligated to chat. However, if you want to use in-game voice chat (instead of Discord or other party chat), here's how to manage the settings.

All voice chat settings are within the game's audio options. Access the options menu (either in-game or from the main menu), navigate to the third tab from the right, and scroll down to find the "Voice Chat" setting. You'll find three options: Enable, Disable, and Push-to-Talk. "Enable" keeps voice chat constantly active; "Disable" turns it off completely; and "Push-to-Talk" activates voice chat only when you press a designated key (keyboard only).
Beyond the basic on/off settings, you can also adjust the "Voice Chat Volume" to control the audio level. The "Voice Chat Auto-Toggle" option lets you prioritize voice chat for either your current quest members, your link party members, or disable auto-switching entirely. Quest members are those currently participating in your active hunt, while link party members are those in a party with you, useful for collaborative story progression.
That covers voice chat in Monster Hunter Wilds. While the in-game audio quality may not match dedicated communication apps, it's a convenient built-in option, particularly helpful for cross-platform play.
