How to send a private message in VALORANT

Whispering is the private message equivalent of VALORANT. Players can send private messages to others by:

  • Pressing CTRL+Enter during a match.
  • Typing the recipient’s name.
  • Typing their message.
  • Hit Enter to send it.

If you’re in the main lobby, you can also send a private message in VALORANT by opening up your friend’s list and right-clicking on the person to whom you’d like to send a message. Choose “send message” after clicking on their name and entering your message.

Tip:

The “Send message” option is only available if they are your friend. If not, you must add them and be accepted to utilize the “Send message” option.

There you have it. You now know everything you need about whispering in VALORANT. Enjoy!
