Change Quick Chat Voice on PUBG Mobile
To change the quick chat voice on PUBG Mobile, open the Settings menu, go to the “Audio� tab, and scroll to the “Voice� section where you can select from a list of available voice packs. This setting changes the voice used for the pre-recorded quick chat phrases (like “Enemy ahead!�) that you can trigger during a match.
What Is Quick Chat and How Does It Work?
Quick chat in PUBG Mobile is a set of pre-recorded voice lines that let you communicate with teammates without using a microphone. You can activate them by tapping the speech bubble icon on the main game screen (or by pressing a hotkey on the emulator). The lines cover common callouts such as “Enemy spotted,� “I need ammo,� “Let’s go,� and “Nice job.�
These voice lines are played aloud to your team, and they are also displayed as text on the screen. The voice you hear is the default one, but the game offers several alternative voice packs that change the tone, accent, or language of those lines. Changing the voice pack does not change the text of the phrases—only the audio.
How to Change the Quick Chat Voice (Step-by-Step)
The process is the same on Android and iOS, and also works on the PC version (via an emulator). Follow these steps:
- Launch PUBG Mobile and go to the main lobby.
- Tap the gear icon (Settings) at the bottom right of the screen.
- Select the “Audio� tab from the menu on the left.
- Scroll down to the “Voice� section (usually below the sound effect sliders).
- You will see a drop-down menu labeled “Quick Chat Voice� or simply “Voice�.
- Tap it and choose one of the available voice packs (e.g., Default, Male, Female, or a special character voice).
- Exit the settings—the change is saved automatically.
Note that some voice packs may be locked and require you to reach a certain level or purchase them with in-game currency (UC or BP). If you don’t see the option, make sure your game is updated to the latest version.
Why Would You Want to Change It?
Players change the quick chat voice for several reasons:
- Clarity: Some voice packs are clearer or louder than others, especially in noisy environments.
- Preference: You might prefer a male or female voice, or a specific accent that you find less annoying.
- Fun: Special event voice packs (like robot or celebrity voices) can make the game more entertaining.
- Language: If you play with teammates who speak a different language, you might want a voice pack that matches, though the text remains in your selected language.
Common Problems and Fixes
If you change the voice but it doesn’t seem to apply, try the following:
- Restart the game: Sometimes the change only takes effect after a full restart.
- Check the volume: Make sure the “Voice� volume slider in the same Audio settings is not set to zero.
- Verify the voice pack is active: Some packs are temporary (e.g., limited-time events) and revert to default after expiry.
- Update the game: Older versions may have bugs that prevent the change from saving.
If you are using an emulator on PC, the same steps apply inside the game. The emulator’s own audio settings may also interfere—check that the emulator’s microphone is not muted, as that can affect voice chat but not quick chat.
Voice Packs vs. Voice Chat: What’s the Difference?
It’s easy to confuse the quick chat voice with the voice chat (microphone) settings. Voice chat is your actual spoken communication with teammates. The quick chat voice is only for the pre-recorded lines. Changing the quick chat voice does not affect your microphone input, and vice versa. If you want to change your microphone input device or test your mic, you do that in the “Voice Chat� section of the Audio settings, not the “Voice� section for quick chat.
Are There Free Voice Packs?
Yes, PUBG Mobile includes several voice packs that are free by default. The “Default� and sometimes a “Female� or “Male� option are available from the start. Other packs may be earned through achievements, events, or purchased with in-game currency. The availability changes with game updates, so check the list in the settings to see what is currently offered. If you are looking for a specific character voice (like a character from the lore), it might be part of a limited-time collaboration and no longer available.
Does Changing the Voice Affect Gameplay?
No, the quick chat voice is purely cosmetic. It does not change the timing, the text, or the volume of the lines. It only changes the audio tone. So choose whichever voice you like best without worrying about a competitive disadvantage. However, some players argue that a clearer voice can be easier to understand in a firefight, so it might indirectly help communication.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use a custom voice for quick chat?
No, PUBG Mobile does not allow you to upload your own voice recordings for quick chat. You are limited to the voice packs provided by the game. Custom voices are not supported.
Why is the quick chat voice option grayed out?
This usually happens if you are playing a limited-time mode that locks certain settings, or if your game is not fully updated. Try restarting the game and checking for updates. If it persists, it might be a temporary bug.
Does changing the voice pack affect my teammates?
Yes, your teammates will hear the voice pack you select when you use quick chat. The voice is played to all members of your team, regardless of their own settings.
Can I change the quick chat voice during a match?
No, you must change it from the main lobby settings. You cannot access the settings menu while in a match, so make your selection before you queue up.
Are there any regional differences in voice packs?
Yes, some voice packs are region-specific, especially those tied to local events or collaborations. The available options may vary depending on your server and game version. If you don’t see a pack that others mention, it might not be available in your region.
