Free Fire Unveils First New Map in Three Years for Eighth Anniversary

Free Fire is gearing up for its eighth anniversary with a bang, introducing the much-anticipated Solara map on May 21st. This marks the first new map in three years and promises an exhilarating, light-futuristic battleground where speed and dynamic combat converge. Solara isn't just a new map; it's a month-long festival of rewards, surprises, and sleek sci-fi aesthetics.

Spanning 1,400 x 1,400 meters, Solara blends nature with futuristic architecture, creating a vivid and imaginative setting. From the jacaranda-filled Bloomtown to the Studio and The Hub, each zone provides unique tactical opportunities, all interconnected by a striking twin-peaked mountain at the map's center. The light sci-fi design seamlessly integrates with the environment, enhancing the visual appeal.

Solara is designed for speed enthusiasts. The new full-map Slide system allows for rapid movement across zones, enhancing strategic rotations. Along the way, on-rail Gloo Wall shields offer tactical defense, while color-changing alerts help detect nearby enemies, making ambushes and escapes smoother and more strategic.

Adding to the dynamic experience, Solara features a weather system that transitions from day to dusk, influencing visibility and setting the mood mid-match. Key landmarks such as Funfair, TV Tower, and Riders Club transform as the light changes, adding an atmospheric layer to every skirmish. The map also encourages exploration with interactive zones and hidden Easter eggs scattered throughout. Discover secret spots like the underground chamber in Delta Isle or pay homage to Kelly at the TV Tower. These locations aren't just for sightseeing; starting May 21st, you can collect limited-time 8th Anniversary Tokens at the Kelly Show scene to redeem for exclusive rewards.

Complementing the map's launch, the Solarush! event will run concurrently, featuring a dedicated interface with daily and themed tasks. These challenges encourage thorough exploration of Solara and offer celebratory gear, including a new emote, skyboard, parachute, and animation effects to mark the anniversary. Dive into the festivities and experience all that Solara has to offer.
