New Map - Kalahari
“After we launched our second map, Purgatory, we realized you didn’t like it as much as we expected. After conducting research, we found out the reason for that was that the map is too similar to Bermuda. Since then, we started to have more conversations with players all around the world on what you guys actually want for our third map. Besides the complete new style, many of you also asked for a map with more actions and we hope to deliver on that. In Kalahari, players will not only see a map with unique landmarks that gives some insights on the story behind Free Fire, but also a battlefield that is filled with action. For more information about Kalahari, stay tuned for the incoming Devblog!”

Gameplay
- Team Deathmatch
New item presets and respawn points adjustments
“Team Deathmatch was released in our previous update and you guys loved it. The high amount of action in each game keeps it fast and engaging, which is something you let us know you enjoy a lot.

Let us know what you think!”Can be used while moving
Restore 25 HP and EP (Up to 150) - Electric Surfboard
Available in Classic Mode
“It has been a long time since we added new special equipment into our game. The Electric Surfboard will bring a lot of mobility but leave its user a bit more exposed.

Thanks for your feedback!”Surfing speed: 4.65 (Sprint speed: 3.25)
Speed while boosting: 12
Boost duration: 3 seconds - AN94
Increased rate of fire and recoil stabilization
“The AN94 still felt like a weaker version of the AK47 despite our efforts to buff it in previous updates. This time around, we’ll be changing the characteristics of the weapon instead of just changing alone. After the update, the AN94 should be more stable and viable in mid to long-range combat.”Damage ratio: 38->36
Rate of Fire increased by 11%
Minimum range increased
Recoil recovery speed increased by 100%
Removed the muzzle attachment slot - XM8
Damage and rate of fire increase
“The XM8 was designed to be a weapon that is extremely mobile and easy to use. However, we realized that the mobility advantage of this weapon did not make up for the lower damage output. This update, we’re going to increase the damage of the XM8 a bit and adding additional stats to make it even easier to use when you’re moving around. After the changes, the XM8 should feel a lot “lighter” to use. Let us know how you feel about the changes!”Damage ratio: 30->33
Rate of Fire increased by 18%
Magazine capacity: 30->25
Range decreased by 5
Accuracy decreased by 5%
