2. Major features

Free Fire Max has better graphics and sound effects than Free Fire. The former is equipped with Firelink technology that allows friends to enjoy cross-play matches, regardless of the version they own.

Free Fire Max players also have new and exclusive features like Craftland (that allows them to curate their own maps) and a 360-degree lobby (to show off their in-game possessions) that set the battle royale title apart. The core gameplay of both titles remains the same and players will have no competitive advantage in either game.
