gadgets.ndtv.com:

Battlegrounds Mobile India (BGMI) developer Krafton is rolling out a new update for the popular battle royale game. As announced earlier, the Spider-Man: No Way Home theme is the major highlight of the update. The latest 1.8.0 update brings UI improvements, allowing players to pick a desired match quickly. With the update, players can avail the new Livik: Aftermath theme until February 14. Once the new version is installed, ranked and normal matching will be shown separately. The update adds automatic marking as well. Along with new features, the update is also bundled with some improvements to the existing elements in the game. Some players flagged issues regarding the January update, and the company has offered a fix.

Krafton on Friday announced the rollout of version 1.8.0 update for Battlegrounds Mobile India. The update for both Android and iOS will bring Spider-Man: No Way Home Theme mode and Aftermath game mode for players. It now has a Separated Matching mode. With this, the season tier points will reflect in ranked matchmaking, and season tier points will not be affected if the player plays in normal matchmaking. Krafton has added some changes in UI to help users to pick a desired match easily.

Another highlight in the new update, Livik: Aftermath mode can be played only in the normal matching. That will not hurt the season tire point. In the Livik: Aftermath: Firearm and Scope mode players can knock enemies with automatic fire. Players will get ziplines for quick movements across the map with the new version. Additionally, there will be a communication tower to save the fallen teammates.

BGMI players can see new supply stores in the map in classic mode, where they can exchange looted coins with supply items.
