A few weeks after the Battlegrounds Mobile India’s official launch, we’re getting a brand new BGMI 1.5 update introducing the new Karakin map, three weapons, a Motorglider vehicle, and features like Tripartition screen and Layout sharing. In addition to this, the official patch notes also promise several enhancements to the training ground and cheer park.
Update: You can now download the BGMI 1.5 update APK and OBB files.
