Arc Raiders VOIP – Proximity Chat & Voice Communication Guide

Voice Communication Guide

Arc Raiders features proximity voice chat (VOIP) that lets you communicate with nearby players.

How VOIP Works

• Proximity-based: Only players within range can hear you
• Push-to-talk or open mic: Toggle in Settings → Audio
• Works cross-platform: PC, PS5, Xbox players can all hear each other

Using VOIP Strategically

• Say “I’m friendly” to avoid unnecessary PvP fights
• Coordinate with random squadmates who don’t have Discord
• Can reveal your position — use push-to-talk for stealth

When to Go Friendly

The Arc Raiders community has an etiquette around friendly encounters. Using VOIP to communicate peaceful intent often works, especially in PvE-focused lobbies where ABM groups passive players together.

Settings

• Settings → Audio → VOIP Volume
• Settings → Audio → Push to Talk toggle
• Mute specific players via the social menu
