Looking at past patterns, the officials usually seem to launch OB updates just a day before the ongoing Clash Squad ranked season ends.

The current CS ranked Season 14 started on 21 July, a day after the OB35 patch release, and will continue until 15 September. Thus, the most precise predicted date for the OB36 update is 14 September, a day before the current CS ranked season will conclude.

The lifespan of a particular open beta update of Free Fire MAX is approximately two months.

The Free Fire MAX Advance Server allows players to access upcoming features and tweaks to in-game content in advance.

The said server only comes for a limited period. Consequently, gamers must rush to acquire this server's access as it is pretty challenging to obtain the activation key.

The activation key is a code required when logging into the FF Advance Server application. The earlier candidates register for the Advance Server, the higher their chances of receiving the code.

The activation key will be distributed by the formal Free Fire team to the selected candidates. Applicants must patiently wait for a positive response. In most cases, it is instantly given to individuals as soon as they complete the registration.
