Since the Advance Server ended earlier this month, players have been looking forward to the release of the Free Fire MAX OB36 update. Garena will drop the much-awaited update today, 21 September 2022.

With this update, a passel of new features will be added to the game to enhance and optimize the battle royale experience for players. While the patch will likely start rolling out in a few hours, the servers will be unavailable until later today, owing to scheduled maintenance.

For this reason, players will have to wait a few hours before they can experience the new features in the official client.


Free Fire MAX OB36 update maintenance has begun on Indian server

Like previous Free Fire MAX updates, there will be a maintenance break before the OB36 update goes live. During this time, the servers will be offline, and players will not be able to access the game. They will face an error message if they attempt to play the game.
