2020 proved to be succesful year for Garena’s Free Fire, the mobile battle royale has accumulated millions of fans and active players thanks to its global collaborations and international competitions.<\/p>\n

While its competitive environment was affected by the COVID-19 pandemic, this did not stop its progress with the holding of the Free Fire Continental Series in the Americas<\/a>, Asia<\/a> and EMEA regions<\/a>, leading to it being named the Esports Mobile Game of the Year at the Esports Awards 2020<\/a>.<\/p>\n

With this background, Garena has made public their plans for 2021, announcing changes to its regional competitive system, in addition to the return of their biggest competition.<\/p>\n
