List of features added to the Free Fire OB26 Advance Server update

Two new characters, a new lobby, and one new pet have been seen in the latest server update. Here is the detailed list of the latest additions:

#1 - New character - Shirou

The new character, Shirou, is said to have a passive ability called Damage Delivered. At his base level ability, when the player gets hit within a 50m radius, the attacker is marked to the player for the first 3 seconds. Also, the first shot on a marked enemy has 10% additional armor penetration.

Upon maximizing the character using Free Fire character fragment cards, his abilities will also get boosted significantly.

#2 - New mystery character

The new Mystery Character is said to have an active ability called Riptide Rhythm. He can unleash a sonic wave forward, damaging five gloo walls within 20m. Also, each gloo wall deployed will result in increasing HP recovery beginning from 2 points.

The character's ability, however, has a cooldown of 65 seconds.

#3 - New pet

A new pet that looks almost like a baby dragon will be available in the pet store section of Free Fire. There is not much information about its ability, but it can be speculated that the pet can fly.

The pet costs ten diamonds and can be bought from the 'Pet' store section.

#4 - New lobby

A new in-game lobby is also seen in the OB26 update. The new lobby features a caged combat arena in the middle and looks like it is situated inside some sort of a closed stadium.

Players can experience the new lobby in Free Fire as soon as it makes its way into the game soon in the official release.

#5 - New Shotgun, MAG 7, and throwable knives

The new MAG 7 Shotgun is available in the OB26 Advance Server, and it holds eight rounds of SG Ammo. It is potent and can knock down enemies in two shots.

A new knife throwing feature has also been added, where players can throw knives from a certain distance to damage enemies.

#6 - Gloo wall training mode

A new gloo wall training mode was added, allowing players to train and learn how to use gloo walls properly and tactically build instant shelters.

#7 - New sensitivity setting

A new option in the sensitivity setting has been added called the "Free Look" option. Players can adjust its sensitivity in the settings menu. It will enhance the TPP experience.

#8 - New training mode

The devs revamped the existing training mode setup entirely, and players will see many changes in the appearance, background, and features of the new training ground in Free Fire.
