Garena has officially announced the Free Fire MAX OB48 update, which comes with a bunch of new and interesting features, gameplay enhancements, and new content. Whether you're looking forward to a new character, improved mechanics, or exciting battle modes, this update is sure to take your gaming experience to the next level. Here's all you need to know about the OB48 update.
Garena has officially announced that the Free Fire Max OB48 update will go live on February 26, 2025 (Wednesday). A temporary server downtime during the rollout is expected. After maintenance is finished, all new features and improvements will be accessible.
New Character: Oscar
One of the biggest features of OB48 is the addition of Oscar, a strong new character. Oscar's special skill, Valiant Dash, has him pierce and destroy Gloo Walls, inflicting a 25% damage increase on enemies in range. This ability will certainly bring a new degree of strategy to battle, particularly in close combat where Gloo Walls are typically employed for defence. Oscar will certainly be a mainstay in any team.
Key Features and Additions
1. Zone Damage Indicator:
Based on community feedback, OB48 introduces the Zone Damage Indicator, showing how much damage players suffer in the poisonous zones. This new addition will enhance players' knowledge of their environment and allow them to craft more useful survival techniques as the environments within the game continue to get riskier.
2. Lone Wolf Duel Mode:
For players who enjoy solo play, the Lone Wolf Duel mode will take the place of the old 1v1 custom matches. This hardcore mode pits teammates against one another in head-to-head duels, bringing a competitive element to the game and enabling players to challenge themselves in a more intimate, intense environment.
3. New Revival Points:
To improve tactical gameplay, two new revival points are added as part of OB48: below the Mill and the Clock Tower. These strongholds will yield new team-play opportunities and restore dead teammates in new and varied ways.
4. Weekly Gold Limit:
A weekly cap of 20,000 gold will be in effect, allowing for more even progress. There will be the opportunity to accumulate up to the limit in gold per week, with a Monday morning reset at 4 AM.
5. Trampoline Grenade:
For some added playful fun, the Trampoline Grenade has been added, giving players two jumps before it vanishes. The grenade auto-recharges and provides the player with the opportunity to outmanoeuvre others and move around obstacles in a creative way.
6. Launch Pad at Mill:
A new Permanent Launch Pad has been installed within the Mill, allowing players to jump as much as 450 meters off the ground. With this feature added, players gain a new mid-air benefit and new possibilities of map traversal and evading fatal situations.
7. AWM Scope Adjustments:
The AWM scope refresh also serves snipers, where enemies are now indicated in red when in their targeting reticles. This helps make players detect and kill targets more easily at a distance.
8. Holi Festival - Unlimited Ammo:
As part of the Holi celebration, the OB48 update will contain an Instant-Free AMMO Limited-Time event. This event will give players temporary unlimited ammunition for specific weapons, providing an extra exciting twist to gameplay during the festival.
9. New Radar System in Battle Royale:
The Mushroom Generator Radar will be available in Battle Royale mode. The radar generates mushrooms that give health and speed boosts, which grant players new strategic options during the thickness of battle.
