To join or register a team, every member should meet the minimum rank of Diamond 1 and have a player level of at least 40. If a team wishes to alter their roster, they must disband completely. Once a game has been played by a team, no changes are allowed. Additionally, it’s important to note that players cannot participate in multiple teams simultaneously.

Participating Teams
For the upcoming event, there’ll be a sign-up period first. Once all preliminary rounds are completed, the top 48 teams will progress to online qualifiers. During this phase, each team will play a total of up to 12 games. The final standings of the top 8 teams will decide which squads proceed to the next stage.
We will update the article once the teams are locked in.
Prize Pool
As a gamer, I can’t help but feel exhilarated at the prospect of this massive prize pool! A whopping ₹1 crore is up for grabs among the competing teams, but unfortunately, the specifics are yet to be revealed by the organizers. Once they share the details, I promise you, every bit of information will have me on the edge of my seat!
Final Thoughts
As a passionate gamer, I’ve got to say that Free Fire has been one of the top-tier esports titles, consistently delivering an impressive performance in the mobile gaming scene for quite some time now. However, unfortunately, in the year 2022, the game was banned due to security concerns raised by the government. This decision led to its removal from various online marketplaces alongside 11 other games.
Since that time, the competitive gaming landscape for the title in India has faced challenges and the community’s focus has moved towards alternative games. But with the upswing in the Indian esports market and the game being reinstated, a fresh opportunity arose, leading to the official announcement of its return.
