Cyber Drop updates in Free Fire OB41 update
Special Cyber ??Drops can not only give you better loot than regular airdrops but also Cyber ??Points that you can use to buy very powerful items like?M1887-X. Here are the rules for this Cyber Drop:
?The Cybernetic Drop will only appear in the 3rd, 4th, and 5th rounds of Contra Squad matches.
The Cyber ??Drop will be transparent at the start of the round but will continue to appear as the Airdrop progresses.
The operation of the Cybernetic Drop is the same as the Defense Airdrop. Players must be in the Cyber ??Drop area for 10-12 seconds (10 seconds for rounds 3 and 4, 12 seconds for round 5) to unlock and get loot and Cyber ??Points. Opening Cyber ??Drop in the 3rd or 4th round will give your team 1 Cyber ????Point, while in the 5th round, you will get 2 Cyber ????Points for your team.
If there are enemies in the capture area, you must defeat the enemy to take control of the airdrop. The airdrop will be given to teams that have players that are staying in that area.
In the CS Store, there is a Cyber ????Item section. Each Cyber ??Point will open certain items. When 1 team gets 3 Cyber ??Points, they can buy the M1887-X weapon.

Battle Royale updates in Free Fire OB41 update
New in-game mission: Defense Barracks
This new in-game quest allows you to unlock the Shed by standing near it for a certain amount of time and the Shed will also scan enemies near you.
The Defense Barrack is now added to the quest list in matches. Play Battle Royale to find this quest. In matches where this quest is active, players will no longer need the key to open the Shed. Once the quest is active, Barrac?o keys will no longer be found on the map or sold in vending machines. Players can unlock Barrack Defense by being near the Barrack area. When the progress reaches 100%, the Barracks will open.
If there are multiple teammates within the area, the Shed unlock speed will be faster. If there are enemies entering the Defense Shed area, progress will be stopped until only one team is in the area. Once the Defense Barrack is unlocked, a UAV will appear above it and scan nearby enemies. The UAV can be destroyed by the enemy, after which the arsenal will no longer have the scanning function.
Pursuit Mission
When every teammate is gone, the remaining players can get Pursuit Mission for nothing from vending machines (apart from vending machines). Only in Duo/Squad mode. To receive 400 FF Coins and Super Revival for each partner, you must survive the mission time (90 seconds for Duo, 100 seconds for Squad).
The location of the player who started the Pursuit Mission is visible to other players in the game on their maps. By eliminating adversaries that start the Pursuit Mission, you can earn enigmatic rewards! All players in one match may only buy Pursuit Mission a maximum of five times.

Map Adjustments in Free Fire OB41 update
Bermuda
The loot level and terrain design on Bermuda, the oldest and most well-liked map in Free Fire, used to be difficult to reconcile with its significance as the highest point on the entire map. This time, Garena has considerably improved Peak’s overall loot level and updated its architectural design, giving Bermuda’s highest peak fresh life. Here are the updates for this map:

Reset the entire building layout of Peak. Removed the original buildings and added a whole new estate.
Lowered the overall height of Peak compared to other locations, allowing for greater depth of space for battles around Peak.
Raised the overall loot density and quality.
The new Peak will be available in Clash Squad Casual and Ranked matches.
Hangar
Adjusted the layout of the blue container area next to the billboard. We removed the curbs to weaken the previously strong advantageous positions; in addition, we also adjusted the placement of the blue containers, enhancing the playability of the container area.
Removed the two trees in the middle area and adjusted the shelters in the second-floor area of the Hangar, making the shooting experience on the second floor better.
Adjusted the layout of the first floor of the Hangar’s buildings. Added an extra door as a passage, providing a new movement route.
Factory
In response to the issue of the excessive strength of the third-floor platform within the Factory, we have made the following adjustments: reduced the height of the third floor and removed the covers on the third floor.
Adjusted the thickness of the railings inside the Factory, making them thinner. This is to reduce their impact on aim assist. Brightened the interior of the Factory for better visibility.
