The partnership between Free Fire and Blue Lock will return on July 17. The confirmation came from an official post by Garena featuring the event artwork and the date — ending weeks of speculation that began with leaks from OB54.
The announcement was made by Garena Thailand's official profile on Instagram this Tuesday (10/06), and the artwork showcases the character Rin Itoshi, wearing jersey number 10, in a central position — the same name that had already appeared in the files of the OB54 Advanced Server.
What has been confirmed so far
So far, Garena has only confirmed the start date: July 17. There has been no official announcement of which items will be available, what mechanics will be used, nor whether there will be a betting mechanic — as occurred in the first chapter. Free Fire Mania will update this news as new information is released.
What is known from the context of the previous leaks is that Rin Itoshi would be the central character of this phase. In May, the OB54 files revealed Rin Itoshi and new thematic items, and the OB54 Advanced Server indicated a possible second chapter of the collaboration. The confirmation this Tuesday aligns with this data.
How was the first chapter
The Free Fire x Blue Lock collaboration debuted in November 2024, when Garena officially confirmed the first partnership between Free Fire and the Blue Lock anime franchise. At the time, the event introduced skins, avatars, and thematic mechanics inspired by the football manga universe.
Garena confirmed on June 10, 2026, that the second chapter of the Free Fire x Blue Lock partnership is set to begin on July 17, with Rin Itoshi as the central character of the collaboration.
What to watch for in the coming days
The trend is that Garena Brazil will release more details about the event in the coming weeks — items, mechanics, duration, and ways to obtain the skins. Keep an eye on the OB54 update calendar, which starts on June 24, as part of the Blue Lock content will likely be tied to it.
