Free Fire x Naruto Event Calendar 2026: Full Schedule and Free Rewards

Free Fire x Naruto collaboration events run from 16 September to 15 October 2026. Known as Nine Tails Strikes, it brings themed missions, free cosmetics, character voice packs, and new gameplay, with rewards unlocking in stages rather than all at once. Below is the complete Free Fire x Naruto event calendar, what each activity gives you, and when it opens, so you can plan which rewards to chase before the collaboration closes.

Free Fire x Naruto Event Dates

The Free Fire x Naruto collaboration, Chapter 1's return titled Nine Tails Strikes, runs from 16 September to 15 October 2026. The calendar applies to the India, Bangladesh, Singapore, Pakistan, North America, Europe, and CIS servers, though dates and mission conditions can vary elsewhere, so it is worth checking the Naruto event tab on your own server too.

Naruto Ascension runs separately as a spin and token activity from 13 September to 16 October 2026 and sits outside the free mission calendar. If you want the guaranteed free rewards, the main calendar events below are where to focus first.

Full Event Calendar and Rewards

The collaboration unlocks in stages rather than all at once, so new activities and rewards open across the event window. Here is how the calendar breaks down:

• Nine Tails Strikes (16 September to 15 October): The centerpiece event, giving a choice between the Hinata or Jiraiya bundle, with a Kakashi Anbu-style mask and a Naruto Battle Card also shown.
• Ninja Training (16 September to 15 October): Complete a set of trials to earn the Hinata Voice Pack, with a weapon cosmetic and Team 7 chibi item also featured.
• Path of the Ninja (16 September to 15 October): Earn Gaara's Facepaint, which places his forehead tattoo on your character, along with Kakashi and Sakura voice pack rewards.
• Hokage's Challenge (from 25 September): Missions provide Naruto-themed vouchers and a chance at the Sasuke Bundle.
• Team 7 Assemble (from 28 September): The main reward is a green Naruto-themed backpack.
• Final Jutsu and Shinobi Techniques (later in the event): A gold pistol cosmetic and further voice packs appear on the calendar, though exact start dates for these two are not yet confirmed.

Other promotional rewards, including a Wind Shuriken Backpack, a Froggy Wallet loot box, Naruto stickers, and a Hinata avatar, are also tied to the event, with missions that can differ by region.

Choose Your Free Bundle: Hinata or Jiraiya

The main grand-prize reward from Nine Tails Strikes is a single free bundle choice. Hinata joins the collaboration as a new cosmetic bundle, while the Jiraiya Bundle returns from the original Chapter 1 event.

The important thing to know is that you can only pick one. Choosing Hinata removes the free Jiraiya option from this reward path, and the other way around, so decide which character you want before you claim. The Sasuke Bundle works differently and isn't a guaranteed reward, since it comes through vouchers and chance-based missions in Hokage's Challenge rather than a direct unlock.

New Naruto Gameplay Features

Nine Tails Strikes adds more than cosmetics. In Battle Royale, you can capture Sharingan: Control and use it to call a Nine-Tails strike on an area of the map. Ninjutsu scrolls return through Ninjutsu Showdown, are collectible around the map in Battle Royale, and are available to Clash Squad teams through Cyber Airdrops.

The map also changes, with a Ninja Academy area added to the Hidden Leaf Village inside Bermuda. Combat gains Kunai as a tool, Reanimation lets teammates revive players at Revival Points, and extra features include the Eight Trigrams Palm Rotation and Gamakichi, who can be summoned for supplies. Together, these give the crossover more depth than a standard skin event.

How to Get More From the Event?

Because the rewards unlock in stages, checking the event tab regularly is the best way to avoid missing anything, especially the later activities that open on 25 and 28 September and beyond. Prioritize the guaranteed rewards first: Nine Tails Strikes, Ninja Training, and Path of the Ninja, before spending time on the chance-based routes like the Sasuke Bundle and Naruto Ascension.
