A detailed guide to change in-game nickname in Free Fire

Changing the nickname is costly, with every change costing players 390 diamonds. However, there is an alternate method to do it for free without any cost, which is to get a Name Change card.

However, this card is not always available in Free Fire and can only be obtained by playing special time-limited events.

Once procured, players can use it from the Others section of the game. It will redirect them to the name change section, where they can do it for free. One Name Change card only allows a one-time renaming.

However, players who don't have the Name Change card can follow these steps to rename their in-game nickname. They must ensure that they have enough diamond top-ups in their account to make the change.

Here are the steps to follow:

• They can run Free Fire and wait for the default loading screen to appear.
• They must navigate to the in-game profile section on the extreme top left-hand side corner of the screen.
• Users have to tap it.
