Battlegrounds Mobile India’s much-anticipated update has arrived on servers and is now available for download on both Android and iOS devices. Krafton has also provided BGMI 1.8 update patch notes to give gamers a sneak peek at the game’s new features.
Krafton is teasing us with new gaming features with each new release. Players are loving the collaboration-themed game modes, with the last update allowing them to transform into Arcane characters and the 1.8 update bringing the Spiderman mode, where players can equip swinging skills by landing on a specific area. Here are the patch notes for the BGMI 1.8 upgrade.
BGMI 1.8 update patch notes
Spiderman: No Way Home Theme Mode
With this update, Krafton has included the long-awaited Spider-Man: No Way Home-themed content in the game. In BGMI, players can swing across buildings to experience the Spider-Verse in an exclusive Spiderman mode. In maps like Erangel and Livik, this mode will be available.
Players must visit the destinations shown on the map after choosing the mode. ‘Mylta Power,’ for example, is one of these sites, where players must fight robots and obtain Spiderman-themed items. A web shooter and a Spiderweb Ball are among these objects. These gadgets can be used to climb large buildings or to shoot foes with spider webs.
The mode’s last feature allows players to resurrect their deceased teammates. Reach the towers shown on the game map once your teammates have been eliminated from the game. After that, approach the tower and select the Recall option to reintroduce your teammate to the game in the precise location where they left off.
Aftermath map mode
In the Livik map, a new unranked mode will be available. Volcanic eruptions, hostile terrains, and other such sights can be seen by players. Furthermore, every rifle will come with a pre-installed sight, and gamers will be able to knock foes out quickly thanks to the weapons’ reduced recoil. Players will benefit from new elements like ziplines, which will allow them to traverse around the map more quickly.
Separated Matchmaking
The 1.8 update will distinguish between ranked and normal matching. If a player enters ranked matchmaking, for example, the season tier point will reflect this. In the same way, if players are already in a regular match, the update will have no effect on their season tier points. In addition, all of the new options will be accessible through the redesigned UI, making it easier for players to locate modes within the game.
Classic Mode Updates
Players will notice additional changes while playing in classic mode. These adjustments are only apparent in the classic modes. To enjoy these updates, make sure you’re playing in classic mode. The following is a list of what you can expect from the game after you update to version 1.8.
- Players will not be eliminated immediately after being knocked down in the water
- The knocked-out player can swim to the shore even after being knocked out
- Players will be able to use auto-jump when ping becomes available
- The place names inside the map will be displayed in three dimensions
- Automatic marking has been enabled for all the squad members inside a match
- Players who use malicious behaviours like killing teammates and offensive chats will experience penalties via merit level deduction
