Contents hide How to turn off chat in Marvel Rivals Season 2? Content Protection Hiding chat Block your teammates

With the release of Marvel Rivals Season 2, NetEase made it slightly harder to turn off the in-game chat. Before the season came out, you could block both your teammates and enemies. However, that is no longer possible, as there is no option to block the opposing team.

Fortunately, you can turn off the chat in Marvel Rivals in just a couple of seconds. In this guide, we will reveal three different methods you can use to avoid text chat with your teammates or enemies.

How to turn off chat in Marvel Rivals Season 2?

If you are tired of your 2/12/1 Spider-Man blaming everyone on the team for the loss, you can turn off the in-game chat. Even after removing the option to block enemies’ chat, NetEase still offers a couple of ways to mute players in your lobby and never hear from them again.

Content Protection

The easiest and most effective way to turn off chat is by enabling Content Protection. This will turn off all user messages in the chat while keeping important information, such as system messages. To enable it, follow these steps:

  1. Open Settings from the Main Menu
  2. Go to the Social tab
  3. Find Streaming Mode and turn it On
  4. Enable Content Protection

It is recommended that you turn off Content Protection while picking heroes, so you can coordinate with your team.

Hiding chat

If you prefer just hiding the chat from your screen instead of turning it off, you can do it easily with a press of a key. To do this, you first need to assign a key that will hide the chat in Marvel Rivals, which you can do like this:

  1. Open Settings from the Main Menu
  2. Go to the Keyboard tab
  3. Open the Communication sub-tab
  4. Scroll down until you find Hide Chat
  5. Assign the key
  6. Press the key while in the game to hide chat

While this solution is simple, it’s not ideal, as the chat will pop up from time to time. Furthermore, you cannot use this solution on a controller.

Block your teammates

If turning off the entire chat in Marvel Rivals is too much, you can block some or all of your teammates. In the past, you could have done this with enemies, but it’s no longer possible. To block your teammates, follow these steps:

  1. Open Voice Chat menu (Default: P)
  2. Press the Block Chat button next to your teammates

You can unblock your teammates at any point in the game. However, you should also keep in mind that the block will only be effective for the current login session. If you quit the game, all of the players you blocked will be unblocked.
