For a similar gametype, see League Play.

Ranked Play is a mode featured in Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare, Call of Duty: WWII, Call of Duty: Vanguard, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II and Call of Duty: Modern Warfare III

Players compete in "Seasons", playing a variety of gametypes, similar to League Play, and also, players are paired with other players of their skill level.

Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare[]

Divisions[]

Similar to League Play in Call of Duty: Black Ops II, ranked play includes divisions. Unlike Black Ops II, there is no 5 placement games. Instead, every player starts out as Bronze, and they have to work their way up through the ranks by winning games. Winning games will add up points towards a division. Losing/leaving a game will subtract points. Each division has a total of 100 division points. Once you have acquired the set amount of points, you will be entered into a Division Promotion Challenge, where you have to win 2 out of 3 games to advance towards the next division. The divisions are the following:

  • Grand Master (Reserved for Top 100 Overall Players)
  • Master
  • Diamond
  • Platinum
  • Gold
  • Silver
  • Bronze

Division Gear[]

After a season is over, players will receive a special armor loadout for the division they were last in. The Grand Master Gear includes a loadout, helmet, exo suit, pants, knee pads, and shirt. Every other division just contains a special loadout with the division art.

Maps and Modes[]

Similar to both Call Of Duty Ghosts Clan v Clan and Black Ops 2 League Play, Ranked Play provides the official eSports ruleset, including the maps and gamemodes.

List of Maps and Modes[]

  • Bio Lab - (Hardpoint / Search and Destroy / Uplink / Capture the Flag)
  • Comeback - (Uplink)
  • Detroit - (Hardpoint / Search and Destroy / Uplink)
  • Recovery - (Search and Destroy)
  • Retreat - (Hardpoint / Capture the Flag)
  • Solar - (Hardpoint / Search and Destroy)
  • Terrace - (Search and Destroy)
  • Riot - (Search and Destroy)
