Rather than ranking the received loot by score, players will be rewarded Battle points through each game played from their consistency on the game which can then me redeemed towards in-game items.

Leading into the second phase in Season, this will release the complete version of the battle pass which offers loot either through the Free or Premium ranked players. Regardless if deciding to pay for the premium or not, players will still receive items based on their time playing Siege. The Premium track that ranks those who pay have not been detailed how much players will have to hand in return for better items.
