All you need to know about the Free Fire OB45 update features
1) Battle Royale
Special 7th-anniversary event: Mini Peak

In Mini Peak, you will be equipped with one Gloo Wall and the M1887, with which you're tasked to eliminate foes and smash gift boxes to earn Memory Points. These points are used to unlock the Hall of Honor and redeem Nostalgic Weapons.

By interacting with Supply Gadgets, more powerful weapons can be obtained at Mini Peak.

Clash Squad: FPP
The Free Fire OB45 update features include various FPP details' optimization and adjustments, including movement speed, shooting performance, skill displays, and visual alerts for nearby enemies. Moreover, FPP sensitivity can now be adjusted in the settings.

New character: Kassie
A neuroscientist, Kassie is skilled with Electro Therapy ability, whose basic form allows her to restore the chosen teammate's three HP/s. Note that this picked teammate must be within 20 meters from her.
