## [Alpha Split](/arcade-mode-alpha-pack/alpha-pack/alpha-split.md)
Your Alpha Pass and Alpha Avatar are linked, but you can separate the two. To do this, you must participate in the Alpha Split event. Each asset retains its benefits and features when split, offering further choice to our loyal supporters.
Details on the Alpha Split will be dropped before the Alpha Pack Pre-sale.\
There will be a transaction cost, but it will go to a good cause.
