The weapon roster is probably the most important part of any shooter game... and Free Fire is not an exception. Garena has always tried to bolster Free Fire's arsenal with new and exciting guns so that players would have new options for combat.
In this article, we would list everything you need to know about the new 'Kord' machine gun in Free Fire.
1 - What is the Kord LMG?
The new weapon Kord is going to be part of the LMG class, alongside the Gatling and the M249... and would be stronger than both. According to Garena, the special ability of this weapon is that the player using it would get a boost to damage and fire rate if they crouch or prone while shooting.
Furthermore, Kord has a higher range as well - it would be a perfect weapon to provide suppressive fire against a squad of enemies. It is likely to have a bipod attachment.

2 - When will it be released?
The gun would be officially revealed during the advance server on April 1, 2021. Currently, there is no information related to its stats yet. However, based on the real-life version of the gun, it is going to be the midway point between the M249 and Gatling - in exchange for mobility, you would get a huge increase in firepower.
The Kord-12.7 mm heavy machine gun is a Russian design that entered service in 1998. Comparing to other heavy machine guns that need to be mounted on vehicles or deployed on a static spot, the Kord is much lighter and can actually be carried around by just one soldier.
