The achievement builds on Garena’s Free Fire efforts to offer great content for players

This latest milestone builds on Garena Free Fire’s efforts to provide an accessible and enjoyable battle royale experience catered specifically to smartphone users. Part of the effort includes continuously delivering engaging content for its global community of gamers and providing esports platforms for the game’s top players to compete and entertain.

In 2021 alone, Garena Free Fire announced collaborations with brands and personalities that resonate with its players. This list includes partnerships (in the game and beyond) with McLaren Racing, Street Fighter V, One-Punch Man, and Attack on Titan.

Garena Free Fire’s esports events continue to provide the game’s top teams and players an opportunity to compete to be the best, which offers a viewing spectacle for fans around the world.

The recent Free Fire World Series 2021 Singapore (FFWS 2021) hit a peak of 5.4 million concurrent viewers, excluding Chinese platforms, according to Esports Charts. This set a new global esports record.
