REMATCH has a seamless matchmaking experience between casual and ranked play, but you can also juke it out with your buddies.
As long as your friends are on the same platform (let's say both of you play on PC), it's pretty easy to play together. You and your buddy must be in the same lobby before starting a match. You can make a full team of five with your friends or add strangers to your team. Let's look at how you can invite your friends and play together.
How to add friends in REMATCH
The first task is to add your friend to the game before you can play together. You'll notice that there's a Social tab at the top right of your screen (as shown in the screenshot below). This tab will show all your friends who can join your session and play together.
You can add your friends to the game who are already friends on the platform you're on. Simply put, add them as friends on your console (using either the PS app or the Xbox app), and they will appear on the Social tab. Similarly, PC users must add one another to their Steam accounts before playing together.
You might have guessed it, but this function is only available for players on the same platform. Whether the limitation gets upgraded in the future is a matter of speculation at this point. Hopefully, Sloclap will introduce a way to add friends manually.
You can also add random players as your friends. From the Social tab, select the recent section. It will show a list of players you have played with and against. You can send a friend request to any or all of them directly inside the game. Once they have accepted, they will show up on the Social tab.
How to invite friends to the same lobby in REMATCH
Once added, you can invite each other as long as both are online. All your online friends will show up separately in the Social tab (just like in the screenshot). Next, start a match and select the mode you want to play.
Do note that if you're jumping in to play Ranked, you must have access to the mode.
