Krafton has also launched the 3.9 update for Battlegrounds Mobile India (BGMI).

This enables gamers to explore a utopian community using AI-controlled robots and new vehicles. The mode also includes Dual Zones and the Star Pub Brawl Area for bot battles.

New in-game events have been added, including Friendship Fuel, BGMI Freedom, and BGMI Friendship Exchange, to commemorate Friendship Day and India’s Independence Day. The update introduces high-value colour-based rewards as well as culturally oriented weekend engagement parts. Limited-time bubble icons in the lobby lead players to active events. A new Path to Glory section has been created to educate users on the basic gameplay of BGMI via interactive tutorials and videos, with successful completion of these training sessions resulting in awards.
