Call of Duty
Call of Duty: Vanguard should receive ranked multiplayer with the arrival of Season 2, scheduled for mid-February after the postponement announced in recent days, thus representing a significant step forward on the competitive multiplayer front.The new The chapter of the series arrived last October without ranked matchmaking, which was announced in a later update, but has not yet been implemented in the game.
As we have seen, Season 2 of Call of Duty: Vanguard will arrive slightly later than expected, with the date now scheduled for February 14, 2022 and classified multiplayer could also arrive in this update.
The issue is reported quite clearly in a new post on the Call of Duty League website: "The ranked game is expected to arrive alongside the new Call of Duty: Vanguard content in February", reads, in quite definite way. We do not know if on February 14 itself, with the launch of the Season, everything is already ready for the start of the classified multiplayer, but in any case it should take place in the same period, in a similar way to what happened also for Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War, which also received the classifieds only in February 2021, a few months after the original release.

Call of Duty to stay on Playstation
Call of Duty is to remain on Playstation, Microsoft bosses have said, after news that the tech giant is to buy games company Activision Blizzard.
The deal worth $68.7bn (£50.57bn) had raised questions over the future of the shooter video game franchise, which is a big hit on both PlayStation and Xbox.
Microsoft Gaming CEO Phil Spencer tweeted on Thursday to say the game would have a future on Sony platforms.
'Had good calls this week with leaders at Sony,' Spencer he posted, external.
'I confirmed our intent to honour all existing agreements upon acquisition of Activision Blizzard and our desire to keep Call of Duty on PlayStation.'
He added: 'Sony is an important part of our industry, and we value our relationship.'
The move - the biggest acquisition in Microsoft's history, which is expected to be finalised in 2023 - means the company will take ownership of gaming franchises like Call of Duty, Warcraft and Overwatch.
Microsoft claims it will help them grow their gaming business across mobile, PC and consoles along with providing building blocks for the metaverse.
Call of Duty started out in 2003, first focusing on games set in World War II, but has since moved into the Cold War, the 1980s, futuristic worlds, and outer space.
