Halo Infinite dropped out of nowhere, and many players are jumping into the franchise for the first time ever. The multiplayer beta which launched earlier this year garnered positive responses and the new ranked system seems to have drawn the attention of its players. If you want to hop right into the Halo Infinite ranked system and see how far you can climb, now is the time to do so. Everyone playing the game is new to it currently and you will be able to learn the mechanics with other players throughout the first season. If you want a rundown of Halo Infinite’s ranking system, here is everything you need to know.
How does Halo Infinite’s Ranking System Work?
Players will need to complete ten games before being assigned a rank depending on how well they perform in those matches. Ranked Arena is very different from the standard game modes as there are several restrictions that get put in place in the Ranked Arena. Certain features may be disabled, some gun types may be removed, and more.
To ensure players compete in a fair environment, lobbies will be balanced based on input method. Players can queue for either controller or mouse and keyboard lobbies. You can also queue your ranked games solo or in the duos mode.
Halo Infinite Ranked Gameplay Rules
When you start a game, there is an open queue and a solo/duo queue. In open queue, you can play with a full fireteam of four and you can queue up with any input method. In solo and duos modes, you need to choose a specific input for fair matchmaking.
The current gameplay rules include:
All players start off with a Battle Rifle
Combat Sensor is disabled for all matches
Friendly fire is on
All grenade hit markers are disabled
Static item spawns are featured
