Once it’s done, the next step is to connect your Google Play account, search for the Free Fire app, and install it.

Even if several apps might contain Free Fire, the high number of downloads and mention of Garena as the publisher should give you a hint as to which game is the right one.

Once installed, all you’ll have to do is connect to the game and play. Even if it’s a mobile game, it’s still a shooter with high performance, so if you encounter lag while playing, you might want to consider closing every background task you don’t need to use.
