Xbox Series X/S and Xbox One X/S - Capturing Party Chat – Elgato

Xbox Series X/S and Xbox One X/S allow users to send party chat audio to two outputs at the same time. Both to your headset as well as to your TV/Capture Card. In this guide we will go through the process of enabling this feature.

Note: This update does NOT affect Game Chat or Lobby Chat. At this time, the Xbox console only sends Game Chat or Lobby Chat to the connected headset. This is something Microsoft would need to change or update. If your headset does not have a mix-amp or similar device with a audio output like a Stream Port, then the only way to capture this is through a wired headset using Elgato Chat Link.
