TrueSkill is a skill-based ranking system developed by Microsoft for use with video game matchmaking on the Xbox network. Unlike the popular Elo rating system, which was initially designed for chess, TrueSkill is designed to support games with more than two players.[1][2] In 2018, Microsoft published details about an extended version of TrueSkill, named TrueSkill2. [3]
It is based on a Thurstonian model with a Gaussian score distribution. It does not satisfy Luce's Choice Axiom.[4]
