Exciting New Features Coming to BGMI 3.8
Steampunk Frontier Themed Mode
The update introduces a captivating new themed mode with an Attack on Titan twist. As a result, players will experience the Erangel map like never before. Two exciting hot drop zones will appear near the shooting range and Mylta.
Furthermore, one of the biggest additions is the introduction of trains! These moving vehicles will travel across the map, carrying valuable loot and special items. Consequently, they'll become strategic hotspots for intense battles and high-tier rewards.
Giant Potion - Transform into a Titan
One of the most thrilling additions is the Giant Potion. You can find this game-changing item at the new hot drop locations. After consuming it, you'll transform into a massive giant, similar to the titans from the Attack on Titan anime.
While in giant form, your teammates can even ride on your shoulders! However, this powerful transformation lasts for a limited time only, so you'll need to use it strategically.
Mechanical Hook - Swing into Action
The update also introduces the Mechanical Hook, a versatile mobility tool. This Spider-Man-like gadget allows players to swing quickly between locations. Above all, it opens up exciting new tactical possibilities for both aggressive plays and quick escapes.
