Garena Free Fire, the popular battle royale game, is making a comeback in India with a special version called Free Fire India. Players have been eagerly waiting for this moment after the game was banned by the Indian government due to data security concerns along with 53 other Chinese apps back in February 2022. Notably, the Garena Free Fire unban date is September 5 and that is when you can get your hands on the FF India APK file for downloading purposes.
The Return of Free Fire India
Great news arrived on August 31, 2023, when Garena announced that Free Fire India is returning exclusively for Indian gamers. The FF India APK file will be available for download on digital stores starting from September 5, 2023.
