The new Ranked mode has officially arrived on Fortnite servers, ushering in a new era of competitive play that’s drastically different from the now-removed Arena playlist.

Players can now progress up two separate ranks: one for Battle Royale and for Zero Build. As of the May 17, 2023 launch of Ranked, competitive Fortnite players will be able to play Solos, Duos, or Squads in Battle Royale, or Duos in Zero Build. Once players get a starting rank during season zero, they can rank up all the way from Bronze to Unreal, with Unreal players claiming spots on a global leaderboard.

The more you rank up, the more tournaments you will unlock. On the Compete page, you can see various tournaments you can sign up for, as well as rank requirements for each.

You can also earn various rewards by playing Ranked, however earning them isn’t accomplished by simply playing matches and ranking up. Here’s how.

How do you earn rewards in Fortnite Ranked mode?

Ranked rewards in Fortnite are earned by competing Ranked Urgent Quests, which a player receives when they get on the Battle Bus in a ranked match. These quests include reaching a certain placement, outlasting a certain amount of opponents, using specific weapons to get kills, and more.

By completing certain amounts of Ranked Urgent Quests, players will unlock new tiers on the Ranked Quests tab and a new reward.
