Console Game Chat

[UnavoidableDagger]

I was looking into ways for enabling chat for console users and I can’t seem to find any methods, is this even possible at all?

I think it’s against TOS for you to implement console game chat, it goes against the console guidelines. I would be careful doing this.

Refer to the below posts:

Does in-experience/platform text chat or chat with voice work for users on console?

• Not yet, but we are working on enabling these features for console devices in the future. We will make sure to provide an update once we have more details on timing. For launch, please make sure in-experience/platform text chat and voice chat is disabled in your experience on console.

Yes. At this moment, there are no console-specific requirements outside of the best practices outlined in the new console guidelines. All old requirements that are not on the new guidelines are outdated and no longer needed.

I don’t know if this still stands though, just be careful.

Honestly, if you wanted to communicate on console, you could probably have a GUI that has pre-filled out text chat to send to the player and once they click it you can just make a frame of the verbiage appear on their screen.

That’s just how I would go about doing it but, making pre-filled out text chats is probably annoying.

Chat on console is breaking TOS sadly.

What about now? I hear roblox updated about chats for console

I’d wait for Roblox to fully release chat to consoles for everyone. It should be allowed when that happens, but it might not.
