How to download Free Fire India

If you pre-register for Free Fire India, the game will be automatically downloaded to your device as soon as it goes live on the digital storefronts.

However, if you want to download the title directly on its launch date, i.e., September 5, 2023, follow the steps below:

• Step 1: Open the dedicated digital storefront of your device (App Store for iOS and Play Store for Android devices) on September 5, 2023.
• Step 2: Search for the game by typing its name in the search bar.
• Step 3: Tap on the Install button.

The APK file of the game is expected to be around 300 MB to 400 MB. However, you will also need to download the OBB file. Additionally, there will be some in-game downloads like resource and map files. Therefore, the minimum free storage needed for the title might be a little over 1.5 GB.

However, you are advised to have at least 3.5 GB of free storage on your device to enjoy the game without any interruptions or lags.
