The Free Fire OB31 update is rolling out across all regions following server maintenance. As dedicated Free Fire experts with years of gameplay under our belts, we've broken down the five essential character changes and optimizations in this patch to help you adapt your strategy.
These five updates are now live on servers, reshaping the meta with buffs, nerfs, and refinements based on player feedback and competitive balance.

Chrono's Time Turner shield has received significant nerfs to curb its dominance. It can no longer be used offensively—players inside can't shoot out, and incoming damage is fully blocked, making it a pure defensive tool.

Maxim, a go-to starter character for new players, sees a nerf to his Gluttony ability. His medkit usage speed was too forgiving, allowing prolonged survival outside the safe zone—now it's dialed back for fairer play.

K remains a top pick alongside Skyler, Chrono, and Alok. Her Master of All ability gets a strong buff in Psychology Mode, boosting EP recovery for sustained fights in this OB31 update.

D-Bee's Bullet Beats ability is enhanced for better precision, pairing well with K's improvements.

Thiva shines brighter in team clashes with a faster revive speed, making her invaluable for squad revivals.
