How to Add Friends & Play Together in Marvel Rivals

Mastering Friend Connections and Gameplay in Marvel Rivals

Marvel Rivals, the thrilling 6v6 hero shooter, offers smooth matchmaking but also allows teaming up with friends. This guide explains how to add and play with friends.

Important Note: Currently, Marvel Rivals lacks cross-progression and cross-play. Friend additions are platform-specific. However, developers have confirmed future cross-platform functionality.

Adding Friends in Marvel Rivals

  1. Locate the Friends Icon: Upon launching the game, find the friends icon (usually located in the top corner near your player profile).

  2. Recent Players: Clicking the icon displays a list of recently played players. Add them directly from this list.

  3. Username Search: Alternatively, use the search bar to enter a friend's username. Press Enter and add them from the search results. They must accept your friend request before appearing on your list.

Playing With Friends

  1. Access Friends List: Click the friends list icon (top right corner).

  2. Send an Invite: Locate your desired friend, select their username, and send a game invite.

  3. Queue Together: You'll then queue for Quick Play or Competitive matches as a team.

Console Players: Friends added on your console's system-level friend list should automatically appear in your Marvel Rivals friends list, simplifying the invitation process.

This concludes the guide on adding and playing with friends in Marvel Rivals. For more game tips and information, check out The Escapist.
