The highly anticipated Basketball Zero Ranked Update has officially dropped in the game, and it’s packed with competitive action, new systems, and exclusive rewards. Whether you’re a casual hooper or a seasoned shot-caller, this guide breaks down everything you need to know to dominate the court in ranked matches.
Basketball Zero Ranked Update – New Codes,
What Is Ranked Mode in Basketball Zero?
Ranked Mode is a new competitive game mode where players can:
Compete against others in skill-based matchmaking
Climb through ranks (still unrevealed how many tiers, but it follows the classic “grind” format)
Earn exclusive in-game rewards
Gain bragging rights in the BBZ community
It’s designed for players who want a more serious, structured version of Basketball Zero — without the chaos of casual lobbies.
How Does Ranked Mode Work?
While the dev didn’t reveal every mechanic, here’s what’s confirmed or heavily implied:
Skill-based matchmaking: You’ll be placed with opponents around your skill level.
Weekly updates: Like the base game, Ranked will get regular tweaks and improvements.
Performance-based rewards: Playing well likely earns you spins, styles, or other cosmetic flexes.
Subscriber Rewards: Comment your Roblox and Discord names—subscribers can win free spins and prizes.
There’s no confirmation on the exact ELO or ranking tiers yet, but it’s clear this mode is designed to reward skilled play and consistency.

FIXES
Perfect Dribble is no longer possible after a pumpfake.
Copycat’s 100% Copy will no longer keep the copied ability after it’s used.
Various issues with keybinds have been fixed.
Camera will no longer bug out in weird cases when spectating the ball.
A bunch of general bugs were also fixed but there are so many I’d spend literally ages listing all of them! ^^;;
QOL
The settings menu now has proper categories which makes it easier to scroll through.
You can now disable the TV cameras.
You can now disable the controls manual.
Cooldowns now have an actual time so you can more easily gauge how long until you can use that ability again.

Will Star Style become Mythic?
- Nope. It will remain a Legendary.
Any new chemical reactions planned?

Will you rework the Perfection style?
- Not currently planned, but it might return in the future.
Cyberpunk Style based on David Martinez?

Favorite Style to use in BBZ?
- The Flash style – because it’s fun!
What advice would you give your younger self?

Will players vote on the next crossover?
- Maybe, but the dev likes keeping some surprise drops.
Will real NBA players (like LeBron) ever appear in-game?
- Only if they can land official partnerships—otherwise, it’s a legal issue.
