BGMI 4.3 Update Brings Drag-Style Racing Checkpoints
The upcoming BGMI 4.3 update will introduce a new racing-style feature to classic matches, adding an action-packed element to the traditional battle royale experience. The update brings drag-style checkpoints that players can activate during regular games, turning certain map zones into timed vehicle challenge areas.
Once a squad enters a flagged race zone, a timed driving challenge begins. Players must move quickly through designated checkpoints before the timer expires. Finishing the run successfully rewards additional loot, which may provide a game-changing boost during mid-game situations. Nevertheless, such paths are commonly placed in open areas, making the vehicle vulnerable to enemy fire. This is a strategic choice – pursue reward routes or play it safe.
The racing system is a part of the overall mobility emphasis in the 4.3 update. Vehicles are about to play a more strategic role rather than being confined to rotation or escape routes. Such checkpoints can be used by teams as mid-game objectives, aggressive loot routes, or even quick shortcuts.
In this way, the update combines speed challenges with survival gameplay to keep matches interesting and less predictable. Casual gamers and pro squads will actively use the feature to secure bonus loot and strengthen their map position. The checkpoints in the update ensure that the players act quickly and do not hesitate.
