How to Report Abusive and Toxic VoIP Behavior in Escape From Tarkov? (2024)

We’re back at it again, but with a slightly different topic. Battlestate Games has added a new VoIP feature in Escape From Tarkov, allowing players to use proximity voice chat and communicate with each other. Sadly, some of the players using this feature are not as polite, and you might encounter wild behavior with people throwing slurs and whatnot else at you. Luckily, BSG added a report feature that is unclear to most players. Worry not, though. We have you covered.

While you cannot mitigate the insults, we can consolidate our effort towards a better Tarkov. While the new VoIP feature can be fascinating, it can also be heartbreaking and brutal. So, how to report abnormal VoIP behavior?

Battlestate Games has made it relatively easy for players to understand the new VoIP feature and its functionalities in Escape From Tarkov. Below you can find all of the instructions given by the developer, including how to report bad chatter. The report instruction is listed below.
