Free Fire has carved out a niche for itself in the mobile battle royale genre, attracting a sizable followers in the subcontinent. Earlier, Garena had deployed a dedicated server for Bangladeshi gamers to provide a better gaming experience and regional events and tournaments.
However, recent events in Bangladesh have not been particularly good for Free Fire players. The country’s High Court instructed the relevant authorities to ban the use of numerous applications, including Free Fire, for a period of three months. According to the petition, such mobile applications have a negative influence on the younger generation. The Bangladesh Telecommunication Regulatory Commission (BTRC) passed an order banning Free Fire and several other applications.
