Blind auditions
As in the previous season, in the blind auditions (provas cegas in Portuguese), each coach is given two "blocks" to use and prevent another coach from pitching for the artist. The "super block" buttons could be used at any time until the artist is asked which team they want to join. In addition to the blocks, each coach received a "super pass" to give to one artist. The super pass, which was introduced in the fifth season of The Voice Kids, defaults the recipient to that coach's team, blocking all other coaches that turned. Furthermore, each recipient bypasses the battles, going straight to the knockouts.

Battles
The battles (called batalhas in Portuguese) began on 17 November. In this round, each coach divides their artists into duos, trios, or quartets to perform a song. The coach then can pick one winner, multiple winners, or no winners from the battle. The four "super pass" artists from the blind auditions are exempt from this round. At the end of the round, each coach takes eight artists into the knockouts.
| Artist won the battle and advanced to the knockouts | |
