Fact Check: Can Free Fire skin tools get you banned?

Free Fire players value cosmetics like gun skins, outfits, and other vanity items, and users always keep an eye out for new items to add to their collection while playing the battle royale title. These items are available across multiple avenues, including the in-game store, events, Luck Royales, and more.

Due to rampant issues with hacking, cheating, and the use of other third-party applications, Garena has issued strict guidelines about what they consider cheating and how they respond to it.
