In the Free Fire community, emulators’ usage has become increasingly common. Content creators have been the driving force behind this trend, regularly playing the game on their PCs or laptops using emulators.

One of the explanations for this transition is the advantage of utilizing a keyboard and mouse with macros. This readily gives PC users an edge over mobile users and simplifies stream matches or creating content.

Following their favorite YouTubers, many players look forward to playing the game on their PC.

The user’s preferences should determine how they adjust the settings. For instance, individuals can either become accustomed to the keybinds already in place or modify them according to their comfort level.

Meanwhile, coming to sensitivity, it is always recommended to keep them on the higher end. However, players will have to adjust them depending on the DPI of their mouse.

Lastly, gamers must change the graphics settings based on the PC specifications. Those with low-end hardware can play in the lowest settings, while users with mid or high-end setups can play in higher settings.

Due to its undue advantage with the emulator users, Garena implemented a separate emulator lobby. This meant that only the emulator players would queue up with other similar users and not those on the mobile platform. Thus, providing a leveled playing field to all gamers.

Thus, if there is even one emulator player in the squad, the entire team will also have to play against the other PC users.

Note: Free Fire is banned in India, and due to government-imposed restrictions, individuals should avoid downloading or playing the game on their devices. Instead, they may engage in the MAX version, which is not among the banned applications.
