Destruction AllStars finally released for the PlayStation 5 this week, and it is free to claim for PlayStation Plus subscribers for two months. The characted-based vehicular arena video game from developer Lucid Games might look like an amalgamation of various other genres melded together, but it’s hard to argue with “free to subscribers,” and it is sure to have its fans as time goes on. But there are at least a few issues with the video game’s voice chat, and the developer has promised that a fix is in the works.

The short version is, because of how the video game handles voice chat, there’s a good chance most everyone playing has had the experience of starting up a match and suddenly having voice chatter and other noise blaring through speakers as it picks up from the DualSense controller mic. There’s seemingly no easy, in-game way to stop this at current beyond muting from the PS5 party chat settings. That’s in addition to unwanted chatter coming from the controller’s speakers. While not directly mentioned by the developer, it seems fair to assume that’s what it is referring to when it describes “issues surrounding voice chat” below:
Thanks for all the feedback so far!
We’re aware of issues surrounding voice chat in Destruction AllStars and are hard at work on a fix!
In the meantime, you can mute a party chat by pressing the PlayStation button, then Square on the party card or create a private party chat.
