How to Fix Mic & Voice Chat Not Working in COD Warzone Verdansk on PS5
Here’s a step-by-step guide to fixing microphone and voice chat issues in Call of Duty: Warzone (Verdansk) on your PlayStation 5, without brackets:
Step 1: Check Your Microphone Connection
Make sure your headset or microphone is firmly connected to the PS5 controller or console, either through the 3.5mm jack or USB.
For wireless headsets, ensure it’s paired properly and the battery isn’t dead.
Test the mic in a PS5 party chat to see if it works outside of Warzone.
Step 2: Adjust PS5 Microphone Settings
Press the PS button on your controller to open the control center.
Go to "Sound".
Select "Microphone".
Set "Input Device" to your headset or controller mic.
Adjust "Microphone Level" by speaking; move the slider until your voice registers clearly.
Ensure "Mute" isn’t on; press the mute button on the controller to toggle it off if needed.
Step 3: Verify Warzone Audio Settings
Launch Warzone on your PS5.
From the main menu, go to "Settings".
Select "Audio".
Check "Voice Chat": make sure it’s set to "Enabled".
Set "Voice Chat Recording Mode" to "Open Mic" or "Push to Talk" (if using Push to Talk, know your assigned button).
Set "Open Mic Recording Threshold" to a low value, like 0.00 or 1.00, so it picks up your voice easily.
Ensure "Microphone Volume" and "Voice Chat Volume" are turned up, around 100 or higher.
Set "Microphone Device" to your headset, not default, if it’s an option.
Step 4: Check PS5 Party vs. Game Chat
If you’re in a PS5 party chat, it might override Warzone’s game chat.
Press the PS button, go to "Game Base", select your party, and choose "Switch to Game Chat" to prioritize Warzone’s voice chat.
Alternatively, leave the party entirely and rely on in-game chat.
Step 5: Test Crossplay Communication
Since Warzone supports crossplay, ensure communication settings allow it.
In Warzone’s "Settings", go to "Account & Network".
Confirm "Crossplay" and "Crossplay Communication" are both "Enabled".
Ask teammates on other platforms to do the same.
Step 6: Troubleshoot Network Issues
Voice chat can glitch due to a bad connection.
Go to PS5 "Settings", then "Network", and select "Test Internet Connection".
Ensure your NAT Type is Open or Type 2; if it’s Type 3, restart your router or contact your ISP.
Use a wired connection if possible for stability.
Step 7: Restart and Update
Restart your PS5: hold the power button for 3 seconds to shut down, wait a minute, then turn it back on.
Check for updates: go to PS5 "Settings", then "System", then "System Software", and select "Update System Software".
In Warzone, ensure the game is updated; check for patches from the main menu.
Step 8: Reinstall Warzone (Last Resort)
If nothing works, uninstall Warzone: go to PS5 "Settings", then "Storage", select "Games and Apps", find Warzone, and delete it.
Reinstall it from your library or the PlayStation Store.
Test voice chat after reinstalling.
