The launch could happen around the time the upcoming mid-season 2 update arrives. This information comes from dataminers.

Sledgehammer Games are already working on the upcoming mid-season 2 update. But one thing to note here is the developer and the publisher Activision have shared no detail regarding Ricochet coming to COD: Vanguard.
