In all Faded Wheels in Free Fire, players will have to remove two items from the prize pool that they don’t want to obtain. Next, they will have to make spins to receive one reward at random.

The items will not be repeated once they are received, thereby increasing the player's chances of getting the grand prize. The cost of every subsequent spin will also rise.

The cost of the spins are as follows:

• 1st spin – Free
• 2nd spin – 9 diamonds
• 3rd spin – 19 diamonds
• 4th spin – 39 diamonds
• 5th spin – 69 diamonds
• 6th spin – 99 diamonds
• 7th spin – 199 diamonds
• 8th spin – 499 diamonds

Hence, players are guaranteed to obtain the new gun skin for 933 diamonds or less.
