It looks like Valve is starting to hang on to CS:GO after seeing the wolf’s ears grow after the Riot Games shooter Valorant, which made Valve’s FPS pretty “pop” in its first year of life.
Today, Gabe Newell’s company announced an “Unranked” or unranked mode, one of the most requested features from users, which will have the same rules as competitive mode and match players by skill, but not counting when they move up or down. Go through the shooter ranking.
Available today in Competitive as well as Wingman and Danger Zone, this new “Unranked” mode is all you need to update your game when you enter Steam to enjoy these new modes.
Today, we’re making adjustments to non-Prime accounts. We also introduce Unranked matchmaking. Information on these changes can be found in today’s blog post: https://t.co/W6m42EUTAH
