Gears of War: E-Day Ranked Placement Matches

How E-Day Placements Work

Ranked Opens On October 13

Versus Ranked opens on October 13, 2026. Placement matches cannot be completed before its playlists open.

One Playlist Per Order

Each Ranked playlist has its own rank and skill rating. Your order covers the 3-match placement series in one selected playlist, not every Ranked mode. If you have already played one or two placements, we complete the remaining matches. The package price is the same for a fresh or partly completed series.

Rank And Skill Division

After placements, the game assigns both your Rank and Skill Division. Rank tracks your progress through that playlist’s ladder. Skill Division reflects your skill relative to other players and helps determine matchmaking.

The purchased result is completion of placements. A specific starting rank, three wins or a fixed rating increase is not guaranteed.

Piloted Or Self-play

With Piloted, a booster plays on your account while you are offline. With Self-play, you control your character and play alongside the booster. Both methods complete the same placement series. Select Xbox or Steam to match where you play.

Completion Speed

Choose how quickly we complete your placement series: Standard: within 4 hours, Express: within 3 hours, or Super Express: within 120 minutes. Placement sessions are available only after Ranked opens.

Arrange Your Placement Session

Tell support which Ranked playlist you want and how many placements you have already completed. For Piloted, arrange account access and avoid logging in during the booster’s session. For Self-play, be ready to join and play at the agreed time. Support confirms the session time after Ranked becomes available.
