The most competitive players will have a new way to prove that they are the best. Epic Games announced that the long-awaited Ranked or ‘Ranked’ will arrive as a new game mode to Fortnite and starting with update 24.40 we will be able to climb through the ranks of Silver, Gold, Platinum and more.
There will be a qualifier for the Battle Royale mode (Solo, Duos and Squads) and another for the Zero Construction mode (Duos). You can watch a trailer below.
The classifications of the ‘Ranked’ mode or qualifying of Fortnite they will be Bronze, Silver, Gold, Platinum, Diamond, Elite, Champion and Unreal. In the first five there will be three levels of classification, but in Elite, Champion and Unreal there will be only one.
How to activate the ‘Ranked’ or qualifying mode in Fortnite?
Once it is implemented, we can activate the qualifying games from the game mode option. As we see in the following image, it must be activated or deactivated before each game.
How does the ranking system work?
If we have the ‘Ranking’ option activated, we will see our current ranking on the left side of the screen along with a bar that indicates how much we have left to advance to the next ranking or return to the previous one.
Ranking up or down depends on:
- The position in which we were in the game.
- The amount of eliminations we get directly or in our team.
- Eliminations in the later stages of the game will give us more points than those obtained at the beginning of the game.
- The ratings of the players we remove are taken into account.
Teams will be treated as a single unit regardless of the number of participants. Of course, be careful with the matchmaking because the player with the highest ranking on the team will determine the level of the rivals we will face. For example, if our team is made up of Gold I and Silver I players, we will be matched against Gold I teams.
Season Zero: when does the qualifying start or ‘Ranked’ of Fortnite?
With the arrival of update 24.40 Ranked Zero Season will begin on Tuesday, May 16, 2023 and it will last until the end of Chapter 4 – Season 3. Our initial rating will depend on how well we have played during the current season.
