For hardcore fans of Call of Duty's battle royale offerings, a dedicated ranked mode is something that they've long-requested. Well, the wait is going to soon be over, as Warzone 2 Ranked Play is arriving later this year.
Despite Season 2 of Warzone 2 and MW2 just kicking off, it seems Activision wants to ease some concerns around future content as it has laid out its plans for both Season 2 Reloaded and later on in the year. The "Season 3 and beyond" content, the fan-favourite Gunfight mode will return to Modern Warfare 2, while Warzone 2 will get Plunder and, finally, a dedicated ranked mode. This was revealed in a deleted then re-posted tweet by the official Call of Duty account but also confirmed in coverage by Charlie Intel.
Warzone 2 Ranked Play will probably follow a similar system to MW2 Ranked Play, which just went live with the start of Season 2, with Charlie Intel reporting that the same team of Treyarch developers that worked on MW2's ranked mode will be working on this one. However, it'll likely be tweaked to better suit the gameplay of a battle royale and end up being a mixture of what we see in Apex Legends ranked and MW2.
