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 options), here's how to manage it.

All voice chat settings are located within the game's audio options. Navigate to the options menu (either in-game or from the main menu), then select the third tab from the right. Scroll down slightly to find the Voice Chat settings. You'll have three options: Enable, Disable, and Push-to-Talk. "Enable" keeps voice chat constantly on; "Disable" turns it off completely; and "Push-to-Talk" activates voice chat only when you press a designated key (keyboard only).
Further options include adjusting the voice chat volume and configuring voice chat auto-toggle. Auto-toggle prioritizes voice chat for either quest members (those currently in your hunting party), link party members (those in a party for collaborative activities), or it can be disabled entirely. For most players, prioritizing quest members will likely be the most useful setting. This is especially helpful when assisting others through story missions where cutscenes might cause interruptions.
That covers voice chat in Monster Hunter Wilds. While the audio quality isn't as polished as dedicated communication apps, the in-game option provides convenience, particularly for cross-platform play.
