Free Fire’s character UI will receive a facelift in the new update, making it more accessible to players.

With the new changes, players will no longer need to spend any in-game currency to level up their characters. Memory fragments will be enough to do so.

The characters’ normal and awakened abilities will also be combined and will occupy only a single slot when the new update arrives.

#6 Revival Mechanism and Clash Squad store changes

The revival mechanism will be available on all Free Fire maps. Players would have to obtain a revival card and then occupy the revival point to bring back their teammates.

Apart from this, the Clash Squad store will provide a wider range of options for players.
