The buzz around the upcoming BGMI 4.3 update is reaching a fever pitch, with rumors circulating about a massive jump in performance. The headline many fans are looking for is the potential introduction of BGMI 165 FPS support. Here is a detailed breakdown of the latest leaks, developer insights, and what to actually expect from the next major patch.
BGMI 4.3 Update Will Introduce 165 FPS: Fact or Fiction?
While there have been several clips and rumors suggesting 165 FPS is coming to BGMI. Most current flagship smartphones are optimized for a stable 120 FPS. To enjoy 165 FPS, a device must have a display with a 165Hz refresh rate (such as certain models from OnePlus or Samsung). Even then, maintaining that level of performance without overheating is a challenge developers are still working on.
New Graphics Features Coming in BGMI New Update
Even if 165 FPS isn’t arriving just yet, the 4.3 update is bringing significant visual upgrades:
- Lobby Graphics Enhancement: A new toggle will allow players to improve the visual quality, resolution, and special effects specifically within the game lobby.
- UI Changes: Leaks Suggest a shift toward a new white-themed user interface for the settings and menus.

Passive Skills Themed Mode in BGMI
The BGMI 4.3 update is set to introduce a revolutionary “Passive Skill System” as its primary themed mode, likely coinciding with the game’s 8th Anniversary celebrations. In this mode, players can choose from five distinct specializations—Healing, Recon, Combat, Detection, and Vehicle—each offering unique tactical advantages that evolve as the match progresses.
For instance, the Combat skill can increase movement speed after eliminations, while the Detection skill allows players to spot nearby enemies while prone. The update also transforms key locations on Erangel into high-tech “Hot Drops,” such as a racetrack in Mylta and high-rise structures in Pochinki connected by glide rails for rapid movement. Additionally, a new Racing and Drag Race element adds high-speed vehicle challenges to the battle royale, rewarding squads with top-tier loot for completing timed checkpoints.
