BGMI new 4.1 Update Features
Map Areas
Penguinville: A cute, snow city established by the penguins through hard work and dedication.
Penguin Towns: Small towns built by the penguins when they first arrived. They serve as transit hubs to their homeland, and are also where they resided before Penguinville was completed. Many have stayed behind to protect and maintain them, so they remain quite lively.
Themed Items
Salted Fish Rocket Launcher: In its basic rocket launcher form, it fires exploding projectiles that deal damage and form patches of ice beneath players that cause them to slip.
The Flame Launcher skill can be used to propel the user forward by shooting flames from the rear of the rocket launcher. Players can fire and reload while the skill is active, but can't control the rocket launcher's speed in BGMI 4.1 update. Swipe the screen to control the direction of flight. There are three flying states: ground, low altitude, and high altitude. Swipe up and down to switch between them.
When the Flame Launcher skill is active, you can use the new Hover skill to freely aim and fire while being propelled forward.
Swordfish Syringe:
A healing item that can be used on yourself or thrown in the BGMI new 4.1 update.
Use it on yourself to heal and gain a temporary speed boost.
It can also be thrown along a targeted trajectory. If it hits a player, it will stick to them for a bit. The pierced player will receive healing and a temporary speed boost.
