If you think it was a bug, no, this is how the update works in any game or software. If you don’t see the update right away, give it a few minutes and check again; you will get the update soon.

Also, before you download this update, keep a few things in your mind. You have a stable internet connection and enough storage space in your device. After these things, you would not get annoying issues mid-download.

What’s new in BGMI 4.5  

The big thing in this BGMI 4.5 update is the Naruto theme mode. KRAFTON has given some of the most iconic locations from the anime straight into the game, including:

  • Hidden leaf village
  • Hokage Rock
  • Naruto’s apartment 
  • Ichiraku Ramen shop
  • Valley of the end 
  • Chunin exam arena 
  • Ninja academy

For anyone who grew up watching Naruto, seeing these spots recreated in BGMI is a pretty exciting touch. But the update doesn’t stop scenery. Players now can use real ninja abilities in battle, like Rasengan, Chidori, Flying Raijin Jutsu, shadow clone and earth-style mud wall. And for this ability here is a fun twist as well; some of these abilities can be triggered using voice-activated ninjutsu, meaning your microphone actually becomes part of the gameplay. 

There is also a brand new Kurama boss battle, where players go and do a fight with him and get more loot. Also, two new modes have been added in the game as well. The first one was Defend Konoha and Valley of the end solo duel, both offering a fresh way to experience the Naruto crossover. 

Also, no update is complete without the new crate. Players can unlock Naruto-themed outfits weapon skins, cards, and also royal pass rewards as well. A massive update is coming into BGMI, and it should be one of the biggest updates ever in BGMI history. From walking through the hidden leaf village to battling Kurma and mastering iconic jutsu, there are a lot of things to do now in the BGMI 4.5 update. If you are a casual player or a competitive player, this update is worth it for everyone. If you are a BGMI fan or a Naruto fan or both fans, this update is really worth checking out. Go ahead and download the latest version and get ready to bring some ninja energy to the battlegrounds.
