Unlocking characters in *BlazBlue Entropy Effect* involves collecting items known as Prototype Analyzers, essential for accessing new characters, excluding those available through DLC. Our comprehensive *BlazBlue Entropy Effect* character unlock guide will walk you through obtaining these crucial Prototype Analyzers and provide a detailed list of every playable character in the game.
BlazBlue Entropy Effect: How To Unlock Characters
Your journey begins right after the tutorial, where you'll receive your first Prototype Analyzer. This initial gift propels you into the world of *BlazBlue Entropy Effect*, guiding you to a room with a glowing platform. To unlock your first character, exit the Acer Program room through the passage on your right, and interact with this platform. This action opens the character selection menu, allowing you to choose which character you want to unlock.
For subsequent unlocks, you'll revisit this room and use additional Prototype Analyzers in the same way. It's worth noting that DLC characters, such as Rachel and Hazama (available as of March 2025), are exceptions to this rule. These characters are automatically unlocked upon purchasing and installing their respective character packs.
BlazBlue Entropy Effect: How To Get More Prototype Analyzers
*Entropy Effect* offers several methods to acquire more Prototype Analyzers, though patience is key.
Progress the Story
As you delve deeper into the narrative of *BlazBlue Entropy Effect*, completing training missions and unlocking gray skills at specific milestones (10, 20, and 40 gray skills) will reward you with Prototype Analyzers. Additionally, a key event later in the story automatically grants you one, without spoiling the plot. Note that unlocking green skills through Potential does not contribute to earning Prototype Analyzers. Unless developer 91Act introduces additional ways to obtain these items, you're limited to three through this method.
Complete Mind Challenges and Spend AP
Another avenue involves the Mind Challenge mode, where you can earn Action Points (AP). By speaking with the janitor, you can exchange 5,000 AP for a Prototype Analyzer. However, *Entropy Effect* doesn't make this a frequent occurrence, so plan your AP spending wisely.
BlazBlue Entropy Effect: All Characters
As of March 2025, *BlazBlue Entropy Effect* boasts 12 characters, with 10 available in the base game and 2 additional characters as paid DLC. Here's a closer look at each character, unlocked using Prototype Analyzers except for the DLC characters.
Ragna the Bloodedge
Ragna is a melee fighter with a unique twist, excelling in close-range combat while gaining power as his HP diminishes. His special ability allows him to sacrifice health for buffs, then siphon it back from his enemies.
Jin Kisaragi
Jin, another melee specialist, focuses on swordplay and ice-based skills. He can freeze foes and, with well-timed combos, significantly boost his strength and speed, confusing opponents.
Noel Vermillion
Noel shines in ranged combat, capable of launching missiles in any direction and shortening her skill cooldown with her special ability. She can even continue casting skills after her MP hits zero using Over-Exhaust.
Taokaka
While Taokaka may struggle against heavily armored foes, her versatility in building and attacking compensates for this. Her Spinny Spinny attack can apply multiple status effects, making her adaptable to various playstyles.
Hakumen
Hakumen embodies the tank archetype with his slow, powerful moves and ability to withstand enemy attacks. Successful blocks allow him to counter with lower MP costs, and he can be equipped for midair combat.
Lambda-11
Lambda-11 excels in both close and long-range combat, equipped with skills that deal continuous damage to enemies. Her versatility makes her a formidable choice in any combat scenario.
Kokonoe
Kokonoe's effectiveness hinges on managing lasers and crowd control effects. While considered weaker, the right damage-over-time build can make her a potent force on the battlefield.
Hibiki Kohaku
Hibiki excels in evasion and crowd control, keeping enemies at bay without being the most powerful. His ability to avoid damage makes him a valuable asset in team compositions.
Es
Es is a powerhouse, capable of countering after dodging and executing mid-air combos. Her crowd control abilities and overall versatility make her a well-rounded character.
Mai Nastume
Mai's high skill ceiling makes her challenging to master but rewarding once her combo system is understood. Her Heavy Attack and mobility allow for devastating damage output.
Rachel Alucard
Rachel's overpowered nature stems from her speed and ability to reset dodge moves, making her nearly untouchable. Her wide-reaching abilities, including a nearly unavoidable stun attack, make her a top choice.
Hazama
Hazama demands strategic play, with input-heavy moves that reward mastery. Once his learning curve is overcome, he stands as one of the game's strongest characters.
That concludes our guide on unlocking characters in *BlazBlue Entropy Effect*. For those eager to dive into this thrilling game, *BlazBlue Entropy Effect* is now available on PC.
