New Royale Pass System for BGMI
Now, players can get their hands on a new Royale Pass every month. For the next Cycle, two different Royale Passes will be introduced in the game named C1S1 & C1S2. Both C1S1 & C2S2 will have a different set of rewards. As the Royale Passes duration is cut down to one month, so are the tier levels. The upcoming Royale Passes will have 50 tiers at max instead of 100 but the quality of the rewards will remain the same. The next C1S1 or M1 Royale Pass starts on 14th July & ends on 12th August.
