Free Fire OB38 maintenance and update schedule for India (MAX version)

The Free Fire MAX OB38 patch is on the horizon. It is only a matter of a few hours before players can experience the newest features in the title. However, before this happens, a lengthy maintenance period will take place, making the game unavailable for a long spell.

This downtime is necessary to smoothly transition to the latest version of FF MAX. One can resume playing the game as soon as the break ends.
