Free Fire OB55 New Weapons: Release Date and Details

Free Fire OB55 update will be launched on September 16, 2026, while the new weapons for Free Fire OB55: M7, Skorp, RPK, and Hawk will come after one month, i.e., October 1, 2026. These weapons will come with the upcoming season of Clash Squad. Here is the list of the four new Free Fire OB55 update weapons:

M7

M7 is an automatic assault rifle made for mid- to long-range battles. This is the only AR among all Free Fire OB55 update new weapons. The gun uses a novel recoil mechanism that slowly moves the direction of fire upwards during shooting, and therefore players will have to control its recoil to hit accurate shots.

Skorp

The Skorp is a quick-firing SMG designed for close-quarters battles. In addition to the new recoil system, it provides good armour penetration capability, so it can be a useful choice for the rushers in the squad.

The Free Fire x Mirzapur Collab is about to arrive for Indian players, bringing voice lines of Munna Bhaiya, Guddu Pandit and more. You can check out its details now.

The RPK

One of Free Fire OB55 update new weapons, RPK is a light machine gun that provides serious damage output. It also has less recoil compared to other rifles, which makes it suitable for ranged combat.

The Hawk

The Hawk is a two-round sniper rifle capable of dealing extremely high burst damage. Landing both shots accurately could allow players to quickly eliminate enemies with weaker armour.

These are the four Free Fire new weapons that will be available from Clash Squad Season One. If your team has a rusher or sniper, they can make use of these guns, since they will be highly buffed upon release.

Free Fire OB55 Balance Changes

New weapon modifications have also been included in this update. The M590 has got an amazing improvement in terms of minimum damage which is increased by 120%, but at the same time, it has lost some of its range, which is 25%. The MAG-7 and M1014 have got movement bonuses.

In conclusion, the Free Fire OB55 New Weapons and balance updates are expected to change the Clash Squad meta. New play styles may emerge and players will be forced to pick one of the new guns to rank up fast. You can also check some of the major Free Fire OB55 changes coming next week after the update.
