Bloodhunt Ranked Mode Explained

The Ranked Mode functions very similarly to the competitive modes of other contemporary titles, pitting you against players with the same skill level and letting you fight it out to earn ranks based on your performances.

It features the same rule set as the standard battle royale mode, so you won't need to make massive changes to your gameplay or relearn different aspects. Ranked Mode is also restricted to players who have reached level ten, so that the amount of cheating that takes place is reduced. 

When playing the mode, players earn Ranked Points (RP) which is based on their kills and overall placement in matches. There is more weight behind kills though, so you are encouraged to really orient your playstyle around dealing death to the other players. Below is a table created by the developers that breaks down the point distribution. 

As you continue to gain RP, you'll earn yourself one of six ranks which are displayed next to your in-game avatar. These are Bronze, Silver, Gold, Platinum, Diamond, and Obsidian. This rank cannot be lost though, so the challenge will always be to climb even higher, rather than worry about keeping what you have.

Another interesting twist to the Ranked Mode is that there is a match fee that you have to pay from your RP when entering a match. This is free as you begin to play the mode, but as you improve your rank, the match fee increases. Below are the different ranks you can earn, along with the RP you'll need, and the match fee cost.

Bloodhunt Ranked Rewards

There are also a number of Bloodhunt Ranked rewards for players to earn throughout the season. Every time you reach a new rank, you will earn three cosmetic rewards that progress in rarity as you climb higher. This means you can earn a total of 18 rewards if you reach the Obsidian rank before July 14. 

The rewards that you can gain will only be granted once the season ends on July 14. To see the progress you have made with the Bloodhunt Ranked rewards, switch to a Ranked game in the main lobby and navigate to the reward's menu.

That's all for our primer on the Bloodhunt Ranked Mode, and now you have an idea of when it will release, how the system works, and the ranks you can earn.
