BO6's Ranked Play mode is already here, giving players the opportunity to show off their skills like a Call of Duty League pro, using the same weapons and rules that the superstars do. If you're ready to grind, get ready to make some loadouts and head into the playlist to hit the top rank each season. Read on below for everything we know about Ranked Play in BO6. Table of contentsBO6 Ranked Play, explainedBO6 Ranked Play Skill DivisionsWhat's new in BO6 Ranked Play?How to unlock Ranked Play in BO6BO6 Ranked Play maps and modesHardpointControlSearch and DestroyAll banned items in BO6 Ranked PlayBO6 Ranked Play rewards BO6 Ranked Play, explained In Ranked Play, players queue up for matches using the same settings, modes (Hardpoint, Search and Destroy, Control), maps (TBD), and restrictions used by the Call of Duty League. Play, win matches, rank up through Skill Divisions with your Skill Rating (SR) points, and unlock rewards along the way. \"SR is awarded after each Ranked Play win and the amount earned is determined by the player\u2019s distance away from their projected Rank, their match performance, and the margin of victory,\" Treyarch said. \"SR is deducted after losses.\" Your SR adds up to propel you through the game's different Skill Divisions, all of which have three different tiers within each, except for Iridescent BO6 Ranked Play Skill Divisions Bronze \u2013 Starting Rank Silver \u2013 900 SR\u00a0 Gold \u2013 2,100 SR\u00a0 Platinum \u2013 3,600 SR\u00a0 Diamond \u2013 5,400 SR\u00a0 Crimson \u2013 7,500 SR\u00a0 Iridescent \u2013 10,000 SR\u00a0 Top 250 \u2013 10,000-plus SR Ranked Play in BO6 is \"the definitive ranked play experience that Treyarch has been building towards\" since developing the mode in both Modern Warfare 2 and Modern Warfare 3 over the past few years. Treyarch says that it's taken everything it's learned in the past couple of games to make BO6's Ranked Play the best one yet, including some new additions and changes. But the basic info about the mode remains the same. What's new in BO6 Ranked Play? Ranks are being updated from previous games, with Treyarch removing Progressive Rank and Victory Stars entirely. Instead, it's all about SR gains and losses to move your way up and down the ranks to better focus on skill solely. New features this year include the ability to veto maps. Before each match in Ranked Play, three separate map and mode combos will show up for the players. The two teams can then vote to decide which maps to veto, with the decision being either the one map that wasn't vetoed or a random selection from two that weren't vetoed. Players will also be able to forfeit matches that they are getting stomped in as opposed to having to wait for it to come to an end. Forfeit will become available in the Options menu when a winning team reaches 100 points in Hardpoint, after the first round of Control, or after the third round of Search and Destroy. Updates to existing features include the ability to party up with four players (skill matchmaking will be based on the highest ranked player), some less painful punishment on seasonal rank resets for players in lower ranks, and loss forgiveness meaning that each player's first loss of the day won't subtract SR. How to unlock Ranked Play in BO6 Before queuing up for Ranked Play, you need to win 50 matches in BO6 multiplayer. This is to prevent hackers and cheaters from playing on new accounts and ruining the experience for many, but also so players can familiarize themselves with the game's modes and maps before playing Ranked.

BO6's Ranked Play mode is already here, giving players the opportunity to show off their skills like a Call of Duty League pro, using the same weapons and rules that the superstars do. If you're ready to grind, get ready to make some loadouts and head into the playlist to hit the top rank each season. Read on below for everything we know about Ranked Play in BO6. Table of contentsBO6 Ranked Play, explainedBO6 Ranked Play Skill DivisionsWhat's new in BO6 Ranked Play?How to unlock Ranked Play in BO6BO6 Ranked Play maps and modesHardpointControlSearch and DestroyAll banned items in BO6 Ranked PlayBO6 Ranked Play rewards BO6 Ranked Play, explained In Ranked Play, players queue up for matches using the same settings, modes (Hardpoint, Search and Destroy, Control), maps (TBD), and restrictions used by the Call of Duty League. Play, win matches, rank up through Skill Divisions with your Skill Rating (SR) points, and unlock rewards along the way. \"SR is awarded after each Ranked Play win and the amount earned is determined by the player\u2019s distance away from their projected Rank, their match performance, and the margin of victory,\" Treyarch said. \"SR is deducted after losses.\" Your SR adds up to propel you through the game's different Skill Divisions, all of which have three different tiers within each, except for Iridescent BO6 Ranked Play Skill Divisions Bronze \u2013 Starting Rank Silver \u2013 900 SR\u00a0 Gold \u2013 2,100 SR\u00a0 Platinum \u2013 3,600 SR\u00a0 Diamond \u2013 5,400 SR\u00a0 Crimson \u2013 7,500 SR\u00a0 Iridescent \u2013 10,000 SR\u00a0 Top 250 \u2013 10,000-plus SR Ranked Play in BO6 is \"the definitive ranked play experience that Treyarch has been building towards\" since developing the mode in both Modern Warfare 2 and Modern Warfare 3 over the past few years. Treyarch says that it's taken everything it's learned in the past couple of games to make BO6's Ranked Play the best one yet, including some new additions and changes. But the basic info about the mode remains the same. What's new in BO6 Ranked Play? Ranks are being updated from previous games, with Treyarch removing Progressive Rank and Victory Stars entirely. Instead, it's all about SR gains and losses to move your way up and down the ranks to better focus on skill solely. New features this year include the ability to veto maps. Before each match in Ranked Play, three separate map and mode combos will show up for the players. The two teams can then vote to decide which maps to veto, with the decision being either the one map that wasn't vetoed or a random selection from two that weren't vetoed. Players will also be able to forfeit matches that they are getting stomped in as opposed to having to wait for it to come to an end. Forfeit will become available in the Options menu when a winning team reaches 100 points in Hardpoint, after the first round of Control, or after the third round of Search and Destroy. Updates to existing features include the ability to party up with four players (skill matchmaking will be based on the highest ranked player), some less painful punishment on seasonal rank resets for players in lower ranks, and loss forgiveness meaning that each player's first loss of the day won't subtract SR. How to unlock Ranked Play in BO6 Before queuing up for Ranked Play, you need to win 50 matches in BO6 multiplayer. This is to prevent hackers and cheaters from playing on new accounts and ruining the experience for many, but also so players can familiarize themselves with the game's modes and maps before playing Ranked.
