Free Fire has been consistent in releasing new content in their game. Based on the advanced server, some new content, including a new pet, character, lobby design, and more, is making its way into the game. Here are the upcoming contents based on the OB26 advanced server of the game. Take note that the contents featured in the advanced server may still change before they get released on the regular server.

New Character Shirou

This new character is named Shirou, possibly a courier based on the caption in his name "The fastest delivery guy around," and his skill revolves around marking enemies. Marked enemies will receive armor penetration debuff meaning every bullet that hits the enemy will ignore a portion of their armor. 

This skill is useful during the late game, where everyone is wearing the best armors in the game. You have the most advantage if you play as Shirou, allowing you to deal more damage than the usual damage that guns deal with enemies wearing armors.

New Pet Draki

This cute dragon has a pretty useful ability. The new pet can detect enemies who are using medkits in its range. The number of players it can detect, and it’s detection radius increases per level. This is useful if you plan on attacking enemies at their weakest moments.

The pet has an alternate skin where the color is changed from fiery red to icy blue. This skin can be obtainable after leveling up the pet.

The Lobby has also been redecorated. An arena has been placed in the middle of it, similar to kickboxing arenas. The area has purple lights to make it look flashy and energetic. This can be a breath of fresh air for players who just want to chill with their squad before a match start.

New Weapon MAG - 7 Shotgun

A new shotgun is coming to Free Fire. This new pump-action shotgun is devastating in close range and is lighter than your average shotgun, allowing you to stay mobile while on the battlefield. Will this weapon break the meta like the Vector Akimbo?

Garena is already planning on their next big thing in the game. Garena recently signed a contract with the popular Racing and Automotive company McLaren. Could this be another event featuring race cars? Keep your eyes peeled for new updates regarding upcoming content for Free Fire.
