This weekend, Garena Free Fire will launch its largest anime IP collaboration. Its much-awaited crossover event with Naruto Shippuden will run from January 10 to February 9, 2025, bringing new Battle Royale (BR) and Clash Squad (CS) gameplay elements, original bundles and collectibles, and Free Fire's first Super Emote. The game will also play iconic tunes of the hit anime TV series, like the Naruto Main Theme, during the event, engaging fans and gamers.
Harold Teo, Free Fire producer at Garena, said:
We are excited to kick off 2025 with the launch of this epic collaboration with NARUTO SHIPPUDEN. Fans can look forward to many never-seen-before features in Free Fire. Personally, my favorite parts of this collaboration would be our Nine Tails Strikes Bermuda event, which allows players to witness Nine Tails in action, as well as a reanimation jutsu-inspired revival point. We can't wait for our players to check out the collaboration event for themselves and create lasting memories with one of the greatest anime of all time.
For a short read, here are the highlights of Free Fire x Naruto Collab Event:
- Step into Hidden Leaf Village: During battle royale mode, visit iconic locations such as Naruto's favorite ramen restaurant, the Hokage mansion, or even Naruto's house.
- Nine Tails Strikes Bermuda: Embark on a special encounter with Nine Tails that will spice up your battle royale gameplay.
- Summoning Reanimation Jutsu: Re-enter the match through a Naruto-themed revival point and receive stronger default equipment
- Exclusive Collectibles: Original outfits, skill cards, weapons, and emotes inspired by popular characters such as Uzumaki Naruto, Uchiha Sasuke, and more.
- Mission Rewards Galore: Compete missions and earn attractive rewards such as a Jiraiya bundle and the all-new Naruto Battle Card.
Below are the complete details of the collaboration event.
New Gameplay Features
Revamped Bermuda Map
In Battle Royale (BR) mode in Bermuda, players start in Hidden Leaf Village, which used to be Rim Nam Village. They can explore this famous shinobi village and look at the engravings on the large Hokage Rock.
Players can also visit Ichiraku Ramen Shop, Naruto's favorite restaurant, and enjoy a bowl of noodles that gives an EP auto-grow buff for the match. They can check out the Hokage Mansion, hang out at the Exam Arena, or take a seat in Naruto's House, making it a great experience for fans of the anime.
Nine Tails Encounter
After visiting Hidden Leaf Village, players will board an airplane for the Battle Royale match. As they prepare to parachute, they will confront Nine Tails. This beast can strike the plane, the arsenal, or the ground.
Depending on where Kurama (The Nine-Tailed Fox) strikes, different events will happen at the site. This will add excitement to the gameplay and encourage Free Fire players to change their battle strategies.
Themed Game Modes
Eliminated players who revive to the game will re-enter using the Summoning Reanimation Jutsu. After this, they will get more powerful default equipment than they had from earlier revival points in Battle Royale (BR).
Moreover, players can find Ninjutsu Scroll Airdrops in Clash Squad (CS) at random spots on the map or take part in Jutsu-related gameplay in both game modes.
Among these ninjutsu scrolls is the projectile Ninjutsu, which can destroy Gloo Walls when they hit, and charge Ninjutsu, which deals damage to the target.
Naruto-Themed Collectibles
No collaboration is complete without exclusive collectibles. Fans and players will love the original bundles based on popular characters like Naruto Uzumaki, Sasuke Uchiha, and Kakashi Hatake.
There are also emotes of signature moves from the series and up to 6 different Skill Cards that deal damage in classic NARUTO style. During the event, players can activate Free Fire's first Super Emote, which summons Gamabunta, The Chief Toad, during non-battle situations.
Free Fire X Naruto Collectibles include, but are not limited to:
- Wearables:
- Male bundles:
- Naruto Multi-Look Changer: Sage Mode and Kurama Link Mode
