Battle Royale by Garena
Testing 9 server regions
How It WorksWe measure the round-trip time to each server region. Testing uses AWS infrastructure for accurate results.Your ping may vary based on network conditions.
For high-accuracy results, we recommend performing checks during peak hours.
One has to agree that the biggest game for Mobile Devices after PUBG Mobile has to be Garena Free Fire. Similar to PUBG Mobile, Free Fire Max aka Garena Free Fire is a massive Battle Royale game. You join the game in a lobby of 50 people where you are placed on a remote island, and your only job is to do anything to be the last one surviving. The game is so widely placed because Free Fire is a very less-demanding game, and even the weakest Smartphones can run it.
Though Free Fire is mostly same when compared to other mobile Battle Royale games, it adds something that does not exist anywhere else. You can actually protect yourself by placing a barrier in front of you called the Gloo Wall. Free Fire also features insane weapon swap speeds. Now, to use both the mechanics efficiently, you need to have low ping. Everything happens in milliseconds in the game. A slight delay in wall placement or weapon swapping due to high ping could cost you the match. So, to make sure you don't face those issues, your ping needs to be below 70ms at all times.
For Battle Royale games on Mobile Devices, it is wise to always switch to a good 5Ghz wifi if you are playing on Mobile Data. 4G or 5G is just not reliable enough for competitive games. On top of that, you can always use the Ping Booster setting in-game, and make sure your visual settings are set to Smooth preset.
In case of High Ping in Free Fire: 1) Use our realtime ping test tool to check if you are getting high ping on just one server or all the servers. If the ping is high on just a single server then it could be possible that the particular server might be facing some issues. In that case, you just need to wait. But, if your ping is high on all the servers then what you can do is, you can try restarting your Wifi router and your Mobile Device. 2) Try switching between Wifi and Mobile Data to see which one is working the best. 3) Go to the Free Fire app settings and clear the saved cache.
If you are looking to play competitively, you should aim for under 60ms. Pro players typically play at under 30ms. Just make sure that your ping doesn't go above 120ms as it will negatively impact gameplay.
Free Fire operates at 30Hz. Higher tick rates lead to more responsive hit registration. Your actions and how quickly they are registered in-game are determined by your ping and tick rate combined.
Use our Ping Test tool to figure out your latency with all the regions, and pick the one with the lowest.
Pick a wired Ethernet connection if you can, as WiFi tend to bring a lot of connection issues. Fiber connections are better than the traditional ones. Close applications that are hogging all your bandwidth. If you are going to use a WiFi router, just make sure you have QoS enabled on it. Trying Cloudflare or Google DNS can help in a lot of cases.
