Fortnite Ranked launched alongside Fortnite Update 24.40, finally bringing a long-overdue ranked mode to the premiere battle royale title.
Fortnite update 24.40 arrived last week and while we sadly had to say say goodbye to Trios, it brought the exciting launch of Fortnite Ranked along with it. Fortnite Ranked Season Zero is underway, and is set to continue all the way through until the end of Fortnite Chapter 4 Season 3 (which is set to launch on June 9, 2023).
Epic Games has confirmed it will be using Fortnite Ranked Season Zero to "make any adjustments to issues and concerns that arise, while also working on additional features and overall improvements for when Ranked starts following the normal Battle Royale Season schedule". Due to Fortnite Ranked Season Zero acting as a test bed of sorts, only a handful of modes are available for the duration of Fortnite Ranked Season Zero.
