Diablo 4 - How to Use Voice Chat

Diablo 4 (D4) features in-game voice chat, supporting real-time voice communication for parties and Clans. Learn more about voice chat in Diablo 4, including how to use it and voice chat settings!

How to Use Voice Chat

Toggle Voice Chat in the Social Menu

How to Enable Voice Chat in Diablo 4
1
While inside a party or Clan, open the Social menu. You can do this through the Map screen or using the default Social menu hotkey on your device.
2
Select the Voice Chat button on the top-left of the screen to open the Voice Chat window.
3
In the Voice Chat window, select whether you want to join Party voice chat or Clan voice chat. You can also leave your current voice chat channel in this window if you've previously joined one.
4
After making your choice, the in-game chat should notify you that you have successfully joined the channel. You can now use your push-to-talk key or speak directly into your microphone to start talking to your party or Clan members!
Note that push-to-talk is enabled by default. You can change this at the Voice Chat settings in the Sound tab of the Options menu.
5 Diablo 4 - Speaker Icon Beside Voice Chat Members
You can identify other people in the voice channel by the speaker icon beside their character portraits. These icons will also glow when they start speaking.

Players can use Diablo 4's in-game voice chat while inside parties and Clans for ease of communication. The game's voice chat feature is also cross-platform, meaning players on consoles can use it to speak with players on PCs and vice-versa.
