Mortal Kombat 11 gets a ranked mode tomorrow, 18th June.
The Kombat League, as it’s called, adds a competitive, seasonal ranked mode to NetherRealm’s fantastic fighting game.
In it, you compete in ranked matches during a four-week season to progress through nine tiers, climbing from the ranks of Apprentice to Elder God.
You get exclusive in-game items for each unlocked rank (rewards are cumulative, meaning players earn all unlocked items up to the highest tier achieved in a given season, so you don’t have to worry about losing out if you drop ranks). There are new daily and seasonal quests, too, which reward you with in-game items. Once a season expires, a new season starts immediately with new rewards.

NetherRealm said there’s a new optimised matchmaking system for the Kombat League to help make sure players are matched with opponents at or near their same skill level. There’s a new meter giving players a quick look at their odds of winning against an opponent at the beginning of each ranked match.
