Reports suggest that Garena Free Fire is set to make a much-anticipated return to India. Rumors about the game’s comeback are gaining momentum, sparking excitement among fans nationwide.
The well-known battle royale game was banned before, but recent activity points to it possibly coming back. The rumors began when Garena listed job openings on LinkedIn for roles in India in areas like marketing, e-sports, data analysis, and strategic operations. This has sparked rumors that the developer is getting ready to release the game again, maybe with a new name, Free Fire India.
Anticipated Launch Date
Previous rumors said that the launch would happen on September 5, 2023, but it did not. Neither the new release date nor any comments from Garena regarding the job advertisements have been officially confirmed. But some fans think it might come out in 2025.
If Free Fire returns to India, players may expect a version that is specifically customized for Indian users and complies with local restrictions. Some potential enhancements may include better localization and gameplay.

One of the most prominent names in online gaming, Garena, also puts out games for mobile devices. Free Fire, its most popular game, topped the charts for mobile game downloads worldwide in 2019, 2020, and 2021, as reported by data.ai (formerly App Annie). Additionally, in certain regions, the business releases licensed video games such as Arena of Valour and Call of Duty: Mobile. In order to foster community connection, Garena places an emphasis on the social and entertainment elements of their games. Major esports events are also organized by the company.
