Warzone Ranked Play Explained (Season 5): Ranks, Levels, Divisions, SR, Rewards, Weapon Camos, Rules And Everything You Need To Know

Season 5 of Warzone is getting underway and it’s the second full season since Ranked was introduced.

As players look for more of a challenge, the Ranked mode (managed by Treyarch Studios) this mode offers more satisfaction as you play others of a similar rank.

Not to mention there are great rewards available, such as Weapon Camos to reflect your rank.

But there are a lot of terms in the mode that can cause confusion.

So let’s break it down and explain how Warzone Ranked Play works, including all ranks, SR, rewards and everything you need to know.

How Does It Work?

Warzone Ranked works very similarly to regular Warzone, with some restrictions in place.

The overall experience sees players trying to earn as much SR as they can, which is done by killing, assisting and outsurviving as many teams as possible.

Here’s what you can expect:

  • Party Size: Trios
  • Map: Al Mazrah
  • Game Mode: Battle Royale
  • Public Event restrictions (e.g., No Firesales)
  • Vehicle restrictions (e.g., No Heavy Choppers)
  • Restricted gameplay elements (e.g., no multi-circles, changes to redeploy mechanics)
  • Buy Station Inventory Adjustments

 

Warzone Ranked Divisions

Warzone Ranked SR

What Do You Get SR For?

Players will earn a Skill Rating (SR) based on match performance:

  • Placement (e.g., 1st, 2nd, 20th)
  • Kills
  • Assists
  • Kills by your squad

SR Breakdown

The SR earned for Kills, Assists and Squad Kills is increased based on the number of squads remaining:
