    Xbox Game/Party Chat Not Working


    Hey everyone, I’ve been having this ongoing issue where my Xbox game chat and party chat randomly don’t work. Sometimes when I try to talk I get a message saying I need to change my privacy or communication settings. The thing is—I’ve already double-checked everything and all my settings are correct to allow communication. Nothing is blocked.

    I’ve made sure:

    • My NAT type is open or moderate

    • My privacy settings allow voice and text communication with everyone

    • I’m not muted or in a communication ban

    • My headset is working and plugged in properly

    • The Xbox app (if I’m on PC/mobile) is up to date

    Still, the issue comes and goes. It’s super frustrating, especially when I’m in the middle of a party or game. Has anyone else had this issue or found a fix? Is this an Xbox Live bug or something tied to certain games?

    Any help would be appreciated!

    :)

    FIX NEEDED. Game chat is not working in fortnite. xbox part chat works fine

    Join an Xbox party chat, go to options and switch to game chat. You can then leave the Xbox party and the fortnite party chat should work again

    How to have the chat mixer work.

    Unfortunately, it’s only working for Xbox party chat, not in game chat. Which is saddening in the world of cross play

    Fortnite Voice Chat

    One thing that worked for me was if you start an xbox party and then you join a fortnite party and go to the voice chat tab it should give you an option to switch to game chat. Also with the new season I can hear people party chats while in a xbox party
    hope I could of helped.
