The biggest-ever update for LawBreakers, the new game from Gears of War designer Cliff Bleszinski`s new studio Boss Key, is out now on PS4 and PC. The update adds a number of new things, but perhaps the most notable of which is Boss Leagues. This is a ranked mode, which Boss Key says is something fans have been clamouring for.While Boss Leagues is now live, the first season is something of a test. Season 0, as it`s called, is a `beta` season, with the goal of gathering feedback to make future seasons better. There are three modes in Season 0: Blitzball, Uplink, and Occupy, and there can be no double-ups on roles. To help players find matches faster, the matchmaking system will look at players from across multiple regions instead of just one.As with ranked modes in other games, you`ll need to play an allotment of matches (in this case 10) before receiving your rank. From there, your rank will rise or fall depending on the skill level of the other team and if you won or lost. You don`t have to worry so much about your Kill/Death ratio, as ranks are all about winning.

Today`s update also introduces a `blood moon` version of the Redfalls. In this version, you`ll see a spooky-looking red moon in the sky that makes it look `darker` and more `sinister,` Boss Key said. In terms of gameplay, nothing is changed, however.Additionally, the new LawBreakers update adds new character and weapon skins themed around Blitzball; in all, there are more than 120 new items that you can get through loot boxes. Finally, today`s update adds ...
