Modern Warfare 2 is said to receive a new ranked mode like most competitive shooter games. This mode will be available alongside the regular multiplayer modes. Dataminers while tinkering with the latest Call of Duty MW2 files, found a few files hinting towards ranked mode.
Since Call of Duty has its own competitive scene, it is natural to have a ranked mode in the game. So, with Modern Warface 2, Activision is looking forward to adding a dedicated ranked mode as revealed by leakers.
Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2 ranked mode addition
It is almost a mandate for competitive games to include a ranked mode that allows players to test their skills. In shooter games, the team division is done in 5v5 mode, and Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2 might do the same with their ranked mode.
Call of Duty is mostly known for its shooter elements and gun mechanics. Almost most players play the game for casual fun. However, the addition of a ranked mode in the future might change this trend in some ways.
As can be seen with competitive games like CSGO, Valorant, and Rainbow Six Siege, many players can be seen chasing higher ranks. This in turn pushes them to take the game more seriously and make every win count and prove their skills around other players.

Competitive modes also bring out the tactical approaches to games which allow players to secure a win. It is important to be tactical and coordinated with teams in competitive games. Thus, it might decrease solo-queue players to rush in without second thoughts and lose.
However, there are many players who would like to play Modern Warfare 2 for casual fun. For them, the casual mode will still be available. So, for the players who do not care about their ranks in the game, the casual mode might be their go-to.
