Those who will receive the reward though are those who have reached at least the "Bronze" level or higher in ranked play. Gamers will get a crown based on their highest division ranks.
" For example, if a player was "Silver II" in 1v1 and "Gold I" in 2v2, the delivered Crown would be Gold," wrote community specialist Josh Watson.
PC Games N also reported that the upcoming patch will include an introduction of "Item Qualities." This means that the items will be marked with the use of a color-coding system that will help in labeling items in reference to "rarity and amount of use as they appear in the player's garage."
Common items or stock items will be labeled grey while premium items, which are obtained from paid DLC, will be marked green. Items available only during season or limited time promotional events will be labeled orange. The uncommon items, which are received after completing online-only matches, will be marked light blue.
The update will be available for PC and Playstation 4 users. It is also available for Xbox One users even though the Xbox One version of the game is scheduled for release this February 2016.
