Garena's popular battle royale game, Free Fire, is set to excite fans with a new collaboration featuring the iconic anime and manga series, Naruto Shippuden. This crossover was hinted at in the game's recent anniversary animation, and although still in the early stages, some details have been confirmed.
The collaboration will bring beloved characters from Naruto Shippuden into Free Fire, along with an exclusive map inspired by the series. However, fans will need to exercise patience, as the crossover is scheduled for release in early 2025.
While the wait might be long, Garena's quick confirmation of the collaboration suggests they understand the high anticipation among fans. You can catch a glimpse of Naruto's signature kunai and backpack in the anniversary animation at around 2:11.

A Bit of a Wait
For fans of both Free Fire and Naruto, the news is bittersweet. The wait until early 2025 might feel long, but Garena's early tease and prompt confirmation indicate that this will be a significant event when it finally arrives in-game.
