Adding Friends in Marvel Rivals
Before diving into how to add friends, it's important to note that *Marvel Rivals* currently does not support cross-progression or cross-play. This means you can't connect with players on different platforms just yet. However, the developers have announced that these features will be introduced in future updates, so keep an eye out for that exciting news.
To start adding friends, launch *Marvel Rivals* and locate the add friends icon, which is conveniently placed in the top corner next to your player profile. Upon clicking it, you'll be presented with a list of players you've recently played with. From here, you can easily add them to your friends list by clicking on their names.
If you're looking to add someone specific, simply use the search bar to enter their username. After hitting the Enter key, find them in the results and send a friend request. Once they accept, they'll appear in your friends list, ready for you to team up.
How to Play With Friends
With your friends list now populated in *Marvel Rivals*, it's time to hit the battlefield together. To do this, click on the friends list icon located in the top right corner of the screen. Scroll through your list to find the friend you want to play with, select their username, and send them an invitation to join your game.
Once they've joined, you can queue up for quick play or dive into the competitive scene together. If you're playing on a console, any friends you've added at the system level will automatically appear in your *Marvel Rivals* friends list, streamlining the process of inviting and playing with them.
