Also similar to the current Ranking system, Pip are awarded to players at the end of a match based on how well they play in four categories: Boldness (interactions with the Killer), Survival, Altruism (interactions with other Survivors), and Objectives (interactions with objects to progress the match). Ranks are being replaced by Grades, which are earned in a similar fashion: by accumulating Pips. Skill-Based Matchmaking uses ratings to determine a player's skill-level with a character rather than ranks. We have provided a quick rundown of this new ranking system (titled Skill-Based Matchmaking or SBMM) below. As of the 5.2.0 update, players are no longer matched with each other based on their rank, but their skill-level with each Survivor or Killer.
