"The Switcher soldiers are special assassins with superhuman abilities. Gorgeous and never supect, they are adept at carrying out undercover missions, and only show their special abilities when needed."
- in-game description


Switcher is a VVIP character set featured in CrossFire.

Overview

Based on their looks and outfits, The Switcher is a group of female mercenaries that specialize in undercover missions. Same with The Fates, this character is composed of three female characters (1 for Global Risk, 1 for Black List, and the other one is specifically meant for Mutation and Zombie Modes). Again, she has a unique and exclusive voice set separated from other female characters.

On the BL side, she wears a high school student uniform along with black arm-warmers and gloves, a backpack, various ammo mags on her belt, and a pistol holster on her right leg. The GR side seems to be an undercover journalist, wearing a dark-blue jacket with black pants that are equipped with ammo mags around it, a pistol holster on her right leg, and black high boot heels as well. On the Special side, she wears a hat with an opened dark green leather jacket that reveals her bra, shorts that are also equipped with many ammo mags, a pistol holster on her right leg, an unusable sword on her back, and high heels too. All three characters are equipped with a throwing knife launcher on their arm, just like The Fates.

Trivia

  • Based on the CG Trailer for the Switcher, when she was interrogated by the SIA, she lied about not having special military training. A "Switcher" is a secret agent in disguise (for example in the trailer, based on her clothes, she is a soldier/agent disguised as a student of the sort).
  • It's said that the name Sonoko for Switcher in CF Vietnam is inspired by the same character from a popular series named Detective Conan due to BL model having a similar (but not identical) model to her anime version. VTC also released a short detective-themed manga to promote Switcher, which can be found on their homepage.
    • Ironically, Sonoko and her DC character are on the opposite side of the law because Black List is portrayed as Terrorists-side in CrossFire. Yet, the promotion manga still refers to her as a justice ally, completely ignore the fact that her appearance is for the BL side.
  • Switcher is the second VVIP merchandise in CF Vietnam to receive 3 different discounts and she has the highest discount up-to-date - everyone gets a 10% discount upon the first 2 weeks purchase, people that already own any VVIP weapon will get 30% off, and finally people who already own The Fates get a whopping 50% off (Although as far as EXP boost go, they don't need to buy a second VVIP character unless for those who plays TDM / S&D and may favor Switcher's perks over The Fates).
  • CF Vietnam continues to be a version that has 2 variants of this character, the first is normal form and the second is Switcher-Special. Although Switcher-Special is available only in AI Mode and Mutation Mode, now Vietnamese player can obtain her and use in all game mode. This character can be obtained through various events and at a cheaper price than her normal form.
    • However, Switcher-Special can use the Throwing Dagger just like her normal form in normal mode but only one dagger per click. The three daggers are only available in Zombie Modes and Mutation Modes. She still retains her VVIP perks except for the GP and EXP boost.
  • In CF Philippines, Switcher is mistakenly labeled as Switcher-Noble Gold after a certain patch update, and up to this day, it's still not fixed.
    • Also, when you hover your mouse on the Switcher in the inventory, the image of Switcher-Noble Gold shows up instead of the normal Switcher.
  • Again, in CF Russia and CF Brazil, Switcher doesn't use their English voices, she uses Russian voices in CF Russia and Portuguese voices in CF Brazil instead. It's also separated from The Fates as well.
    • She was also received her unique Spanish voice in CF Español before the server got terminated.
  • When you install CF China and create an account for the first time, you can get Switcher for 1 day (You have to press the 'gift box' icon in the installer first).
