If users look at the prior releases, Garena has been releasing updates one day before the conclusion of Clash Squad’s Ranked Season (CS-Ranked). Subsequently, they can expect that the OB34 iteration will also follow the same pattern.

Accordingly, it is projected that the Free Fire OB34 update will be published on 24 May 2022 to align with the end of the CS-Ranked Season, which will take place on 25 May 2022. On this particular date, players will not be able to access the servers due to the maintenance break.

Subsequently, upon the new version’s release, the next season of the Clash Squad mode will be made available. Moreover, the ongoing Gold Royale will also be replaced by another one.

Note: The developers have not provided an official release date for the patch, and the one listed above is speculative.

Step 1: Visit the official Free Fire Advance Server website and sign in using the option used during the registration.

Step 2: Players can then tap on the ‘Download APK’ button to start the process.

(The download will begin on 12 May as the server starts on that date)

Step 3: Once the file is downloaded, users can enable the ‘Install from Unknown Source’ setting and install it on their devices.
