Like Progression Mode, Ranked Mode is based around testing the player’s skill. Players can also form Clans, and Fight against other clans. Players that win matches will have an Icon next to their in-game name. While essentially the same as casual multiplayer, ranked naturally features more competitive gameplay and offers some small changes. For instance the time limit can not exceed 60 minutes.

Victory Points
Victory Points are awarded after you have completed a multiplayer match. The higher your score the more victory points you will earn.

Victory Points can be spent on various items in the in-game store. On the store players will find Camouflage packs for your units and customisable emblems and badges for your units. The store will also offer new units, not previously unlocked in the multiplayer mode however these will cost more Victory Points and will be offered in standard currency also.

Development
