Free Fire India: The wait is almost over for fans of the popular battle royale game, Free Fire. Garena, the game's developer, is gearing up for the much-anticipated return of Free Fire in India.
While an official release date has yet to be confirmed, speculation is rife that the game will launch in 2025, sparking excitement among players across the country.Free Fire was banned in India in 2022 under the IT Act 69A, leading to its removal from both the Google Play Store and the Apple App Store.
