  1. Erangel
  2. Miramar

Since all the maps have their geographic characteristics and differ from one another largely, players need to have adequate knowledge about locations and vicinities on the maps.


2) Choose a style of gameplay

Choosing a style of gameplay plays a pivotal part in BGMI. Whether to have an aggressive or passive approach has to be decided by the players en route to obtaining 'Chicken Dinners".

Aggressive gameplay can result in a team landing in a hotspot to take on initial fights and increase the F/D ratio of the players.

Meanwhile, some hot drops can have a handful of players landing in the vicinity of the flight path is tilted towards a specific direction.
