3.8 update features

Steampunk Frontier theme mode

Stempunk Frontier is going to be the new themed mode in Battlegrounds Mobile India, which is based on the popular anime series Attack on Titan. There will be two hot drops on the themed Erangel map, and two trains will travel across the map. Players will get amazing loot, special items, and abilities on the hot drops situated near the shooting range and Mylta.

Giant Potion

Players can obtain the Giant Potion from two hot drop locations, which allows them to transform into giants, similar to the transformation seen in the Attack on Titan series. If you transform into the Giant, your teammates will be able to travel with you sitting on your character's shoulder. However, this power works for a limited time.

Mechanical Hook

Using the mechanical hook, players can fly from one place to another, just like Spider-Man's web. This is going to be one of the best items in the BGMI 3.8 update.
