Battlegrounds Mobile India (BGMI) players have a lot to explore in the game with the rollout of the 4.0 update. This update brings Stepwell, the first-ever in-game location designed in India, along with several new modes, seasonal features, and festive events. From Diwali celebrations to supernatural twists and more, Krafton India brings several changes to give players a new way to engage in the battle royale.
BGMI 4.0 update: New Map Location to Explore
The Stepwell is the highlight of this update and is now available in Erangel. It marks the first locally created location for Indian players, blending cultural design with competitive gameplay. The layered setup encourages vertical combat, ambush tactics, and sniper opportunities, demanding stronger squad coordination and strategic planning.

Diwali Celebration Inside the Game
To mark the festive season, players can trigger Diwali fireworks in Stepwell between October 18 and 24. This feature adds a cultural layer to the combat zone, which makes the battleground not only a strategic hotspot but also a celebration point for squads.
Ghost gameplay for Fallen Teammates
Another key addition is Ghost Gameplay. Eliminated teammates can now return as spectral forms with unique active and passive skills. These include healing, scanning enemies, and defensive support. Spectral Revival ensures that fallen players remain useful to their squad, adding a new twist to elimination rules.
