Free Fire: How To Get Orion for Free

Players can get the new character Orion for free by simply logging into the game on May 12. However, players looking to take a deep dive into the character’s lore will have to wait a few more days to be able to do so.

Orion’s character lore will be revealed through his character movie ‘Orion, The Fist of Vengeance’, alongside a 3-part video series that’s set to arrive in the near future. Players can also tune into the game on May 20th to get a new legendary outfit via the ‘Legendary Scorpio Bundle’.

Orion’s special ability is named ‘Crimson Crush’, and it enables him to temporarily become indestructible on the battlefield and steal HP from nearby enemies.

Garena will also introduce the  limited-edition M1014 – Scorpio Shatter to the game during the event. It’s a configurable Evo Gun that has been modeled after Project Scorpion. It has been equipped with a unique ‘Final Shot’ feature that plays an animation of a red scorpion when the player gets the final kill on an enemy.

The M1014 gun also offers players a range of customization options, including the ability to switch attributes and skills with their owned Evo M1014 – Green Flame Draco. On top of that, players owning the gun are also able to rename it an unlimited number of times, making it easier to personalize their weapon to their liking.
