The debut of Ranked in v24.40 will be the start of Ranked Season Zero. Season Zero lasts until the end of Battle Royale Chapter 4 Season 3. 

The Ranks will span across :

  • Bronze
  • Silver
  • Gold
  • Platinum
  • Diamond
  • Elite
  • Champion
  • Unreal. 

You’ll have separate ranks for both Battle Royale and Zero Build.

 In the Lobby, if you have “Ranked” set to “On” you’ll see your current rank on the left of the screen. You’ll also see a progress bar indicating how far you are from advancing to the next rank or returning to the previous one. 

How much the progress bar increases or recedes after a match will depend on the following factors:

  • Your match placement

  • How many eliminations you or your team got in the match

    • Eliminations later in the match will count more than eliminations earlier in the match.

    • The ranks of the players you or your team eliminated will be taken into account.
