1. Toggle Mute Manually

If you notice that all the players in a match are muted, you will need to unmute them manually. You can easily achieve this by highlighting all the players in the lobby, then pressing X on PlayStation 4 or A on Xbox One.

2. Change Audio Settings

If you still aren't able to fix the issue using the above settings, you need to look at the game’s voice communication settings. Check and verify if the voice chat is enabled across Warzone. All you need to do is go to the main menu and head over to the 'Audio' tab which is under the 'Options' menu. Now look for 'Voice Chat' settings. You need to enable the voice chat for everyone followed by changing the mute strategy to 'Unmute all'.

3. Enable Cross-Platform Chat

If the above steps don't seem to fix the problem, the next step is to check if cross-platform chat is enabled on your system. You can do this by going to the 'Options' menu under the 'Account' tab. From here, look for an option called 'Crossplay Communication' and enable it. Doing this will enable voice communication across all the platforms.
