Last updated
Stuck in a console-only voice chat in Fortnite? Let’s figure out how you can join the rest of your squad, no matter what device they’re on.
Ever found yourself glued to your console, wondering how to join voice chats with friends on other devices while playing Fortnite? You’re not alone!
A Simple Guide to Exiting Console-Only Voice Chat
First things first, jump into Fortnite’s main menu. From there, navigate to the ‘Settings’ option, it looks like a gear icon. Inside ‘Settings,’ go find the ‘Audio’ tab.
Under the ‘Audio’ settings, you’ll see an option labeled ‘Voice Chat.’ If it’s set to ‘On,’ you’re in luck. Right below, there should be a setting for ‘Voice Chat Method.’ Change this setting from ‘Party Channel’ to ‘Game Channel.’ This switch allows you to communicate with players across different platforms, not just your console pals.
