Hello everyone, this is the Ironsight Team. Season 6: WWII will be going live on September 16th!

The Battle Pass is back with 100 new tiers, filled with exclusive rewards.
A new season of ranked will also begin, with an increased map pool, the ability to party up with a friend, and a team size increase to make the matches 6vs6!
Season 6 also introduces 4 new weapons. The Thompson (SMG), Kar98k (SR), Luger (Pistol) and Mace (Melee). Although these weapons are a blast from the past, they still pack a punch and contain a lot of history!

[h3]2. Ranked Season 6[/h3]

    Season 6 of Ranked will be live as soon as the servers are back online.

    Season 6 will feature Ranked [Solo/Duo] from start to finish. Ranked [Clan] and [Duel] will still be open, but they will not be eligible for Ranked Rewards.

    We received a lot of feedback last season about Ranked [Solo] and, in particular, how being able to queue up with a friend would make the experience a lot more enjoyable. As a result we have decided to upgrade Ranked [Solo] into Ranked[Solo/Duo]! This season you will be able to queue up by yourself or with a friend as you climb the ranks and push for your spot on the leaderboard.

    You can find more details about the new season of Ranked [Solo/Duo] by following the link below
