Singapore-based tech company Sea has cut some jobs. The layoffs reportedly affected several business units, including Free Fire developer Garena.

Playwind Games has closed a $4 million funding round led by Garena. The Free Fire creator is now stepping into the space of casual mobile titles with a social focus.

Popular mobile games Free Fire and PUBG Mobile might soon be banned for three months in Bangladesh. The court called these titles “destructive” for kids while also ruling to stop a few other apps.

Free Fire, which is one of the highest-grossing mobile battle royales globally, has reached a new record. The game’s peak daily active users surpassed 150 million in the second quarter.

Garena’s mobile battle royale Free Fire has surpassed 1 billion in lifetime downloads on Google Play alone. It’s worth noting that it’s the first game in this genre to reach this milestone.
