After various successful past collaborations, Garena has teamed up with global sensation Justin Bieber who is being added to the game as a playable character called J.Biebs. Players on the Advance Server have already gotten access to J.Biebs with the OB35 update. J.Biebs has a passive called Silent Sentinel, which helps teammates within a six-meter range to block the 7% damage with EP (Energy Points). This gets added to the player’s EP bar. You can increase the damage blocked by levelling up the ability.
Harold Teo, producer of Free Fire, Garena said “The tremendous support we have received from our global community of fans and players over the years has made Free Fire what it is today and this celebration is for them.” He added, “We are excited and humbled to partner with a global icon such as Justin Bieber, whose influence in fashion and music has undoubtedly inspired many worldwide, including our Free Fire community which expresses their own creativity through battling in style.”
