The 1.7 update for BGMI appeared on November 19. The update brought with it several features like a lucid UI and Mirror World theme and also introduced the C1S3 Month 5 Royal Pass. However, the new anti-cheat engine is the most talked-about feature as it resulted in the banning of over 2.5 million in-game hackers.

The new rewards and modes as well as the reduction in the number of hackers saw a lot of players return to their beloved game. With the classic mode matches returning to their glory, a lot of hot drops began to flood with players.


Which are the best landing spots in BGMI after the 1.7 update?

1) Bootcamp

Bootcamp is reportedly the most famous place to land for players in BGMI. Placed on the western side of the eastern island of Sanhok, Bootcamp in actuality is situated centrally on the map.

Due to its central location and plethora of loot, a lot of players drop into Bootcamp and take on initial fights. However, the number increases exponentially if there are RP missions that require the player to drop into Bootcamp.


2) Pecado

Pecado lies in the heart of Miramar 2.0 Map. Pecado is one of the most popular places to land on during a BGMI classic mode match. Reportedly, more than one-third of the entire player lobby drops in Pecado.

Surrounded by hills on two sides, Pecado's is likely to stay in the first couple of zones during most matches, and it attracts players who love to take on initial fights. Two red-buildings, an L-shaped building, a five story building, and the auditorium are Pecado's hot spots.
