Clash Squad Season Four and New Dual-Wield Weapon Highlight Free Fire’s Latest Update

Player feedback continues to pave the way for Free Fire’s future patches

SINGAPORE – December 7, 2020 – Free Fire, one of the world’s most popular mobile games, is announcing the launch of its latest patch, Operation Chrono. The patch includes a new season of Clash Squad, the game’s first dual-wield weapon, additions to the Training Grounds, and much more!

The fourth season of Clash Squad will soon be here, and with it, Survivors who rank up to Gold III or above will have an opportunity to earn the exclusive Golden P90. The popular game mode will also receive optimizations that will match premade teams against each other, while those playing solo will complete their matchmaking with other solo teammates.

For the first time in Free Fire history, the game is introducing a dual-wield weapon — the Vector Akimbo. While the Vector Akimbo has a relatively short effective range, its devastating power in close range assaults makes it an ideal weapon for Survivors who like to get up close and personal with their enemies. In addition to introducing a new weapon, Free Fire is making adjustments to a number of existing weapons, like the M4 and P90, to help keep its weapon ecosystem diverse and balanced. Advanced attachments are also being replaced with advanced weapons, which will help Survivors in using a powerful rare drop as quickly as possible.

Free Fire’s Training Grounds have been a big hit since its launch in December 2019 by offering a fun and relaxed environment. Training Grounds continues to evolve with the introduction of its own fun form of currency — Bermuda Shells. Survivors can earn them by actively participating in minigames like the new Music Arcade, which allows friends to create music together by stepping on buttons on the ground, and social activities. The first in-game item that can be purchased with Bermuda Shells is the firework.

Additional improvements to Free Fire once Operation Chrono launches include a renovation to the Fire Pass interface, the launch of the Free Fire Partner program for certified players and celebrities, the option to save up to 2 sets of in-game HUDs, a new interface to rank mode, and changes to the electric surfboard. Many of the changes being made in the upcoming patch are based on player feedback, which the Free Fire team pays a lot of attention to. Survivors looking to kick off the latest season of Clash Squad along with discovering the destructive firepower of the dual-wield Vector Akimbo can download Free Fire at the following locations:

The Stadium Is Where I Am is a very useful project, where you can share your experience with young people from all over the world! It is a great honour for me to inspire young people and pass on my love for freestyle football so that this sport can continue developing further. I hope they will continue training and never give up, just like me“, supports the initiative the reigning freestyle champion Melody Donchet, sharing her impressions.

Chuck Norris Brings the Festive Cheer to World of Tanks

Get ready to take on Chuck’s Challenge as part of Holiday Ops 2021

2020 might have been a bit of a strange year, but it’s nice to see a familiar face: Holiday Ops in World of Tanks! This Christmas and New Year celebration will see players focused on two things: battles and baubles. From 9th December to 11th January, a cozy little mountain town will be ready for tankers to decorate as they wish, all while earning great and valuable rewards. But that’s not all… This town has an extra special resident: Chuck Norris!

Chuck has crafted his own challenge for every tanker: one which will test their resolve and mettle. Every day, a new mission will become available with 32 to take on in total. While all valuable, some of the rewards are extra special so players won’t want to miss out on them, including a special vehicle slot for Holiday Ops—which will allow players to choose their own vehicle bonuses—and Commander Chuck himself!

“Players like to say I must have been on the other side when they lose a battle; well, now it might just be true,” says Chuck Norris, World of Tanks Ambassador. “As you all know, even when the chips are down, I’m not one to shy away from a challenge and I hope that my fellow tankers do me proud when they take on Chuck’s Challenge!”

Just like last year, Holiday Ops is all about earning a collection of ornaments while decorating the special festive garage. There’s plenty to find in this snow-laden town, from a pianist performing for the residents to an enormous Christmas tree which takes center-stage. By dressing up the town, players will increase their festive atmosphere and their present yield. Tankers will be rewarded with various ornaments and decorations for creating their own firework displays (albeit, using enemy vehicles) and completing special missions. There are hundreds of ornaments to collect and 4 collections to complete so players will be able to decorate to their heart’s content.

Additionally, the Snow Maidens are back and are giving out special gifts daily. Each of the four Snow Maidens is responsible for a specific collection: Christmas, New Year, Lunar New Year or Magic New Year. By selecting rewards each day, a special meter will fill up and lower-tiered ornaments will be excluded from your daily gifts..

“2020 is drawing to a close and we want to give the community something to remember,” states Max Chuvalov, World of Tanks Global Publishing Director. “Holiday Ops is always our biggest in-game event and it’s the perfect way to see off the year! We hope that this will really get everyone in the festive spirit!”

And finally, the holidays are a time for giving and this year, while crazy, is no different. All players—whether they’re on the Nice List or Naughty List—will be find a token of appreciation when they log in: the brand-new Pz.Sfl. IC, a Tier IV German tank destroyer with an autoloader! Thanks, Santa!
