Garena Free Fire, the incredibly popular battle royale title, now has a resident DJ. DJ Alok, the Brazilian superstar behind songs like "Hear Me Now" and "Never Let Me Go", is set to arrive in Free Fire as a playable character, and you'll be able to hear some of his music through Fortnite-like in-game performances.

Alok's avatar, outfit, and accessories will all be available for purchase through the in-game store. The playable version of the DJ has an AOE ability which can heal all nearby teammates and give them a temporary speed boost.

If you're a fan, you'll be able to check out Alok's performance of "Vale Vale" in the pre-match holding area. And, to top it all off, one of his famous dance moves has been added as an emote.

"As a huge fan of Free Fire myself, I am truly delighted to be a part of its universe," said Alok. "I cannot be more excited to bring my music to the millions of players in the game and to further excite our fans."

In other Alok news, he was recently voted the 11th best DJ in the world by DJ Mag. To keep up to date with his latest endeavours, you can follow Alok now over on Instagram.

Earlier this year, Dann called Garena Free Fire 'probably the biggest and best mobile battle royale you're not playing', with it boasting more than 450 million registered users globally and over 50 million peak daily users as of May 2019. It's also massively popular at the moment in Brazil.

If you fancy seeing what all the fuss is about, you'll find Garena Free Fire available for download now for free from both the App Store and Google Play. We've also got some helpful guides to get to you started.
