Free Fire 4th anniversary to redesign spawn island and introduce new game mode
Garena has also announced multiple upcoming events and features with the 4th-anniversary celebration in the latest episode of The Kelly Show (What’s up Free Fire)
One of the main features that the anniversary celebration will bring is a special redesign of the spawn island which will feature new music, a color overhaul, and a sign that will showcase the events of the anniversary celebration.
In the episode of The Kelly Show titled ‘4nniversary’, Kelly shared a couple of updates that will be coming soon during the anniversary season.
The developers are working on a 1 vs 1 mode, something that fans have been asking for. The Anniversary Awards for the most popular character of the year was announced with Alok emerging as the victor. The DJ even had a short bit in the episode. Other awards - such as most popular pet and most popular weapon - were also announced.
Clash Squad enhancements were also discussed. Players will be able to make a request for weapons and equipment in the store, and a teammate can buy it for you. Also, auto pickup is improved to pick up high-value items first. Other enhancements like improvements made to characters like Jota and the vending machines were also talked about.
It looks like Free Fire’s anniversary season will bring players and fans a myriad of things to be excited about - from a long-awaited patch to an exclusive partnership with DJ duo Dimitri Vegas and Like Mike who will feature as playable characters.
