Mobile Legends has a feature that allows it to download in-game updates while you are playing the game. However, during major updates, the game will need to restart in order to add the new content to the game. 

Here is how you can turn on Auto Update in Mobile Legends;

  1. Tap on the Settings option in the main lobby.
  2. On the Basic tab, tap on the Update Settings.
  3. Choose between “Update only in Wifi” which allows it only to update when connected to wifi, or “Update in any network,” where it will download regardless of the network connection.
  4. Tap on confirm, and the game will automatically update itself when there are new patch updates.

How to Update Mobile Legends Manually

Despite the feature that allows ML to automatically download updates while you play the game, you may sometimes experience problems that will not let the game automatically download updates for it. So players will have to do it manually.

The size of these patches ranges from 100KB bug fixes to 500MB of large-scale changes. You can check the file size while the game is updating.
