Ranked Play has been temporarily disabled in Call of Duty: Warzone as the developers investigate ongoing issues affecting the mode over the course of Season 3 Reloaded. Although Season 3 Reloaded brought several content additions to Call of Duty: Warzone, the update was accompanied by various issues affecting the game's servers.
Each season of Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 and Warzone offers a slew of new content, including major Reloaded updates that mark the halfway point of the season. In Call of Duty: Warzone, the Season 3 Reloaded update continued to evolve the Verdansk map with new features and improvements. For example, the Verdansk Train Station opened with multiple access points, and Rebirth Island's Triumph TF 250-X motorbike was added to Verdansk with the new update. Season 3 Reloaded also introduced High Value Loot Zones and more contracts, including the Big Game Bounty Contract and Train Recon Contract. However, Call of Duty: Warzone's Ranked Play mode didn't benefit from the update, due to issues involving Skill Rating.

The official Call of Duty Updates Twitter account posted an update on the status of Ranked Play in Call of Duty: Warzone, confirming that it will be temporarily disabled while investigations into server disconnects and crashes are ongoing. According to the developers from Raven Software, there's been a rise in players not being properly awarded Skill Rating in Ranked Play matches. The playlist will be updated to reflect Ranked Play being disabled for the time being, and the developers intend on working toward restoring the Ranked Play experience back to its intended form.
Raven Software Disables Call of Duty: Warzone Ranked Play Due to Skill Rating Not Being Awarded as Intended
The community's response to the update has been mostly negative, with many players citing their frustrations with Ranked Play and server disconnects in the past week. Some Call of Duty: Warzone players are disappointed with the game since network issues have been a constant issue in Ranked Play following the release of Call of Duty: Black Ops 6. As a result, some players aren't optimistic about Ranked Play and would like the developers to focus on other issues affecting Call of Duty: Warzone's modes, including problems with cross-play settings on consoles.
A timeframe for when players can expect Ranked Play to return has not been given, but Call of Duty: Warzone players still have new content and events to enjoy in Season 3 Reloaded, including the 4/20-themed Blaze of Glory event. During the event, Call of Duty: Warzone players can earn Blaze Bucks from loot caches and supply crates. Players have until May 15 to earn cosmetic rewards from the Blaze of Glory event in Call of Duty: Warzone before the next event begins.
