Marvel Rivals is an online video game in 2024, which means you’ll need to know how to block and mute people.

As accessible as the game is, with several heroes great for beginners, the game does have some problems. It’s not immune to poor behavior from its players, which can lead to a frustrating in-game experience.

The toxicity in hero shooters, or any online game, is an unfortunate part of today’s gaming landscape. Thankfully, there are ways to deal with it.

You can mute and block unwanted communication from players in Marvel Rivals. Let’s go over how to do that.

How to Mute Players in Marvel Rivals

Nothing is worse than listening to someone ramble on in voice chat or spew negativity. Thankfully, we can mute them.

If you want to unmute them, simply click the same button.
