Riot Games has put forward a classic online multiplayer video content, League Of Legends, which brings outstanding music with multiple seasons of soundtracks, so when you find that your League Of Legends sound is not working, it’s something you’re going to want to fix right away.
Choosing the right audio output and ensuring you select the correct device to run your sound will normally fix this audio issue.
If not, we have created this easy guide to help restore the loss of audio to your league of legends so you can enjoy the sound of battle once again.
Why does my League of Legends have no sound?
Why does my game have no sound?
With League of Legends being a MOBA (Multiplayer Online Battle Arena), champions need to be able to hear their enemies fast approaching, as well as their teammates so they can strategize to ruin the other team’s base.
So if you are using yourself; ‘Why is my sound system not working’, we have the possible reasons outlined for you;
Reason 1. Computer and in-game sound settings are incorrect
You have audio settings for your computer as well as on your League of Legends application.
If one of these two settings is incorrectly put, the audio will not play properly. Your sound setting could possibly be muted.
Reason 2. Incorrect Audio input/output
If you are making use of a headset or not, your audio settings may have the wrong output device selected.
This just means your sound will be trying to play through a device that has not been connected, causing the audio to be ‘lost’.
Changing your output settings during the game may interfere with these settings.
Reason 3. Outdated sound drivers
The sound drivers on your PC may be outdated or contain corrupted software that is causing your audio to not play properly.
Updating these drivers will override the current software downloaded, and improve the performance so your audio can play without any interferences.
How do I fix the audio on League Of Legends?
League of Legends Character
You can’t play LoL and not be able to hear Ahri’s charm, or Garen during the tutorial phase of starting League Of Legends.
Fix 1. Check audio settings on PC
The sound settings on your PC may be set incorrectly without you realizing it. Checking the volume mixer setting on your PC will show you all the audio settings available.

Step 1. Right-click on the volume image at the bottom of your screen
Step 2. Select ‘Open Volume Mixer’
Step 3. Check to see that all volume settings are set to high, and LoL has not been muted
A further setting to check on your PC is the ‘Playback’ settings. Here you will be able to make sure the sound is set to ‘stereo’ and not ‘surround’ as well as ensuring the output settings are set to speaker or headphones depending on what you are using.
Fix 2. Check Output setting
Step 1. Right-click on the volume button
