There are 5 steps you should know in order to be able to change characters in Free Fire:
Step 1: Launch Free Fire
Firstly, you have to open the Free Fire app on your mobile. Make sure you are signed in to your account properly.
Step 2: Access the Character Menu
When you open the game and you are in the main lobby screen, look for the tab that says “Preset” and tap on it. It’s usually located on the bottom of the window – it’s the icon which looks like a person. By clicking on this icon, the character selection option will be opened.
Step 3: Select Your Character
Within the character menu options, you will be presented with the full array of available characters. Each character has abilities that may be useful in controlling the way you are likely to play the game. Check out our recommendations for the top 5 characters in Free Fire.
Step 4: Equip Your Character
After you’ve decided on a character, you can tap on them to see their detailed stats and abilities. If you haven’t unlocked that character yet, you may need to use in-game currency such as gold and diamonds or wait for special events to unlock them. Once unlocked, tap the “Equip” button to use them in-game.

Step 5: Customize Skills (Optional)
Besides knowing how to change characters in Free Fire, you should also learn customizing the characters’ skills, if you’re aiming to climb the Free Fire ranks. The skills can be swapped, or one ability can be mixed from other characters for versatility.
After you’ve equipped your character, return to the main menu. You’re now ready to jump into a match with your new character and take full advantage of their unique abilities.
As mentioned in step 4, not all characters are available for free at the start. Players can purchase additional characters using the in-game currency, Diamonds. To do this, they need to visit the in-game store, select the desired character, and complete the purchase with diamonds. Be sure to effectively level up your Free Fire character to make the most of their abilities.
Additionally, characters can sometimes be unlocked through special events or by using the LINK system, which allows players to earn characters by completing specific tasks. This offers multiple ways to expand your character roster.
