Racket Rivals has officially launched its first major update, and it’s centered around one of the most highly requested features: Ranked Mode. Whether you’re ready to compete for exclusive rewards or just want to grab the new limited rackets, this update brings a lot to the table. Here’s a full breakdown of everything included in Update 1.
Racket Rivals Update 1 – Ranked Mode, Limited Banner, Codes
Ranked Mode – Climb the Ladder
The highlight of this update is the introduction of a full Ranked competitive system, allowing players to prove their skill and earn unique cosmetic rewards along the way.
Key Features:
5 Ranked Tiers, each representing a different level of competitive performance.
3 Divisions per Rank, offering more progression milestones and a clearer path to improvement.
Exclusive Rackets Per Tier, including the ultra-rare Divine Racket, only obtainable through ranked play.
Progression Through Wins – The more ranked matches you win, the more rewards and rank progress you earn.
Ranked mode introduces long-term goals and unlockables for competitive players, while also offering exclusive cosmetics that are not available through banners or shops. It’s a reason to grind, a way to stand out, and a new foundation for the game’s competitive scene.
Limited-Time Banner
Alongside ranked mode, Update 1 also includes a brand-new limited-time banner filled with flashy rackets and themed cosmetics.
What’s in the Banner:
Glitterbomb Explosion Racket – A bold and vibrant design with a sparkling visual trail.
Rainbow Charge Racket – An electric, colorful racket that stands out on the court.
Shoppin’ Emote – A fun new emote with shopping bag animations.
Rainbow Bubble Effect – A visual effect that leaves a colorful trail behind your shots.
Reminder:
These items are limited-time only, and once this banner cycle ends, they may not return.
Redeemable Codes
Two new promo codes have been added in celebration of Update 1. Use them in-game for a free bonus:

The developers have also extended their appreciation to the player base, thanking everyone for their support in getting the game to this point. Ranked mode is the first of many updates planned, and community feedback has played a key role in shaping this release.
This is only the beginning for Racket Rivals. With the competitive foundation now in place, future updates are likely to build on this system with events, seasonal resets, and maybe even tournaments. For now, get in, grab your racket, and rise through the ranks.
