Characters add variety to the gameplay in Free Fire. Each is equipped with an ability and can be used with three other abilities to create a character combination. These skills can be divided into active and passive. The differentiating factor is that players are required to activate the former manually.

Generally, active characters have a stronger influence on gameplay and are even more important from the perspective of character combinations since these combinations can only feature one active skill. At the moment, the game includes 11 characters with active abilities, and here is a complete list.

Note: Free Fire is banned in India, and players from the country should not play it.
