Free Fire OB38 Advance Server APK is available on the official website

Free Fire OB38 Advance Server commenced on December 23, 2022, and will remain open for access until December 30, 2022. During this phase, you can download the APK from the official website and install it on your device to enjoy the game's new features.

However, you will need an Activation Code to gain access to this client. The only way to obtain it is through the Advance Server registration process on the official website. You may follow the instructions to register yourself and potentially receive the code. If you're lucky enough to get it, subsequently download the APK file from the website:

Step 1: First, access the Advance Server website and sign up using Facebook or Google.

Either one of these social media accounts must be linked to an existing Free Fire account for the process to occur. If not, an error message will pop up on the screen.

Step 2: You will be redirected to a form where you have to input an active email address and click the 'Join now' button.

By following these steps, your application will be sent, and you will receive an Activation Code if you're accepted.

You will have time until the conclusion of the server (December 30) to enjoy and try out all of the newly added features. Players can provide input and feedback about the Advance Server's content while reporting bugs and glitches as well.
