Firstly, the lobby screen UI is going through an overhaul where new options are also getting implemented, such as the Unranked versions of all modes. Also, the option to select modes has been moved to the upper screen section for better accessibility.
A new matchmaking system has been introduced with the 1.8 updates that will limit players who are at Diamond tier or above to matchmake with subsequent two tiers only. That means diamond players can matchmake with players up to Ace tier and not above. To matchmake with players who are in Ace Master, you must maintain a minimum tier rank of Crown. Players who are Platinum and below can matchmake among themselves with no restrictions.
For this update, the game will introduce a Spider-Man: No Way Home themed mode in classic matches as a result of its brand new collaboration with Marvel Cinematic Universe’s latest instalment – Spider-Man: No Way Home. However, the exact gameplay details of this themed mode have not been revealed yet. The themed mode will come to both Erangel and Livik ranked classic matches.
Further changes include patch note updates. The major gameplay change coming next season is the option to revive teammates underwater. Players will no longer face instant death after getting knocked on water. Even in knocked out state, they can swim to the shore by themselves or get carried by teammates.
Check out more changes coming later in the next ranked season in the video below.
