The campaign received a warm welcome, garnering more than 17 million views across the two-week campaign period.   

In-game events 

Garena lined up a series of exciting Diwali-themed in-game events and collectibles for players. This included Diwali Ludo, which had players collect rocket tokens on the game map to play a Diwali-themed version of Ludo. 

The event gave players the chance to win the Indian themed Fearless Warrior costume and a Bhangra emote, both the first of their kinds for Free Fire in India.  

The celebrations continued with Diwali-themed features sprinkled throughout. This included “Happy Diwali” fireworks in Spawn Island, which certainly livened up the atmosphere.
