Fade, the first mobile-exclusive character to hit Apex Legends Mobile when it launched back in March, can now be played free of charge--for the moment, anyway. This week, Respawn is giving players a chance to walk (well, slide) a few miles in the mobile legend's shoes without having to pay for the privilege.

Normally, Apex Legends Mobile characters can only be unlocked by either purchasing the premium battle pass and reaching level 25 of 50 (at which point that season's legend will be unlocked) or by purchasing them manually. This means that, unlike in standard Apex Legends, there is no way to unlock an Apex Legends Mobile character without spending real cash.

Because of this, many players--especially new ones--haven't gotten a chance to try out Fade and Rhapsody, or even the recently added Loba. Giving players a chance to dip their toes into a new legend's ability set is a wise choice on the part of the game's developers, as many players (especially those who got their start on the console and PC version of the game) are hesitant to spend real money on a character they are unfamiliar with and may not enjoy playing.
