Starting and ending time of Free Fire OB37 update maintenance revealed (MAX version)

Free Fire and its MAX version just got their new patch update earlier today, November 16, 2022.

The update has started rolling out. However, a maintenance break has also arrived alongside it, making the game unplayable for hours.

For the Indian server, the maintenance break started around 9:30 am IST, and players were not able to access the in-game server.

Per the schedule, the interval will last for hours, and players will receive free rewards after the end of the maintenance break. However, they will have to download the update to claim them.
