1. New character Sonia in the Free Fire OB40 update
In skill-based games, characters play a pivotal role in transforming gameplay. Introducing Sonia, a brand-new character with an entirely passive skill set, to the current roster in Free Fire. Her special skill, Resurgence Shield, will provide a protective shield for players for a few seconds after receiving fatal damage. While the shield is active, players can take down enemies by restoring HP. In the event they fail to eliminate the opponent, the game will conclude for them.

2. New ally Pug in the OB40 Free Fire update
In Free Fire, there are numerous allies that characters can enlist to enhance their gameplay and presence in the game. This new ally, named Pug, boasts the cool appearance of a BOSS dog. Essentially, it does not come with any special skills and can be equipped with the skills of other allies. Players can unlock Pug through top-up events or purchase it from the store. In addition to the addition of new characters, many features such as character revamps, changes to the user interface, and bug fixes will be featured in the entirely new update.
Currently, characters like Dimitri, Oliva, and several others will undergo changes to better fit and adjust more appropriately to the meta. There will be a new interface in the waiting lobby before the match begins. The OB40 update will be officially released after the conclusion of the test server.
Alongside that, a fan-favorite character, Alok, will undergo an upgrade in Awakened state. This Awakened Alok will boost speed and healing ability with a new power variant.

3. New Ice Wall Mechanism in Battle Royale Matches
In the upcoming Free Fire update, players will encounter the 'Ice Wall Creator.' This new feature will be responsible for creating ice walls. In general, all players will start with it at level 1 in their inventory, and the ice walls will be generated every few seconds in the match.
Therefore, after updating to the new OB40 version of Free Fire, you won't need to search for ice walls across the map. It's essential to note that there's storage limitation, and the ice walls cannot be created indefinitely. Moreover, this equipment can be upgraded to a maximum of level 5, and the higher the level, the faster the ice will be produced.
4. Dual Skills will function in Contra Squad matches
In the upcoming Free Fire update at the end of May 2023, players can equip two active skills for their characters in Contra Squad matches. Therefore, you can combine different active skills such as:
- Dimitri vs Chrono
- Ngộ Không vs Tatsuya
- Tatsuya vs Santino
- Alok vs Tatsuya
- Chrono vs Santino
The next Free Fire update will be officially released on May 31, 2023. It's important to note that Garena's Battle Royale servers will cease operations, and players need to update to the new version, the OB40 update. Hopefully, with the above shares from Mytour about the Free Fire OB40 update, it proves useful for readers. There will be continuous breakthrough updates to make the user experience more exciting.
