Battlegrounds Mobile India players are keenly waiting for the release of the new BGMI 3.6 update.

BGMI developer Krafton has launched a major update every two months. Each BGMI update is based on a certain theme. Additionally, notable changes are made to classic mode and new features are introduced.

The BGMI 3.5 update was released with a new Icemire Frontier Theme mode on November 21. The BGMI 3.5 update also witnessed multiple new features, collaborations and various in-game rewards.

In the latest Icemire Frontier Theme mode, gamers now have the ability to use animals as vehicles for unique transportation options.

Offering a strong and team-friendly ride, the Mammoth has the capabilities to carry up to four players while Sabertooth Tiger serves as a two-seater vehicle with exceptional  abilities like high-powered jumps and an auto-advance function, making it both athletic and productive in conflict scenarios.

Frostheim, a Chieftain’s Stronghold and Beast-Taming Ground, is one of the prominent features of BGMI 3.5 update that offers good loot opportunity. 

The exciting Dragon Battle mode and the inclusion of Glacier Village as a new drop point are some of the new features that players can look forward to in the latest BGMI update.

Furthermore, the BGMI 3.5 update has rolled out a new battle pass filled with special rewards and in-game items. 

A collection of glacier-themed weapon skins for sought-after guns like the M416 and M762 and enhanced gameplay mechanics have improved both in-game performance and aesthetics.

The latest BGMI update also includes a collaboration with Norwegian music artist Alan Walker where gamers can tune in and dance to his latest soundtrack, Himmat, in the lobby.

While the latest update has been hugely successful, players are excited to know about the BGMI 3.6 update release date in India.
