Garena has finally revealed the date, schedule and location of the Free Fire World Series (FFWS), the biggest Free Fire tournament in 2022. In this article, Gurugamer.com is going to showcase everything you need to know about the Free Fire World Series 2022.
1. Where will Free Fire World Series 2022 be held?
This Global event will take place from May 14 to May 21 in Sentosa, Singapore. Singapore is Garena's home turf and they should be able to handle most situations that might arise.
This is probably a countermeasure to the global pandemic situation, as the recent second World Series in 2021 was canceled. In the first FFWS, South Asian teams were barred from entering Singapore and competing at the first FFWS 2021 due to Covid-19's second wave in the country.
