Free Fire is a popular mobile shooter title with millions of active players around the world. Along with innovative gameplay mechanics and interesting rewards, regular updates within the game are undoubtedly a major factor that attracted such a huge number of players.

Developers introduce new features and optimizations through periodic OB updates approximately every two months. They released the OB35 version on July 20 on all available platforms, ending the OB34 iteration.

Mobile gamers can easily access this updated version through the Google Play Store and Apple App Store for Android and iOS devices, respectively. However, PC gamers will have to go through a few more steps to play the BR title as there is no official PC version for the same.

Disclaimer: Free Fire is currently banned in India. Consequently, players from the country should not play the title. They should play the MAX variant instead.

Step-by-step guide to access Free Fire OB35 update's official version on PC

Since the Battle Royale title is designed for mobile devices only, PC gamers must use a third-party software called 'Emulator' to play the shooter title. Players should keep in mind that playing FF on PC using an emulator is completely legal.
