Deadlock Beta Season 1 end date
The end date of the current Deadlock ranked season will be indicated in the game client. Beta Season 1 will end on October 7, 2026.
Deadlock season duration
Valve introduced a brand-new Ranked Mode on July 30, 2026. Ranked Mode has seasons, with the first one starting on July 30 and concluding on October 7, immediately followed by the next season.
Future ranked seasons will likely have longer durations with splits in between (breaks within the season where rank adjustments are made).
While we don't yet have enough historical data to estimate a long-term seasonal schedule, predicting the exact start and end dates for each Deadlock season is quite simple because Valve shows the estimated season end date directly in the game client.
It is impossible to predict the exact time of the day, so the countdown below is just an approximation timed to the indicated day.
In the table, you can find the history of the starting and ending date of each season. There is no off-season.
| Season | Start Date | End Date |
|---|---|---|
| Beta Season 1 | Jul 30, 2026 | Oct 7, 2026 |
| Beta Season 2 | Oct 7, 2026 |
