In *BlazBlue Entropy Effect*, unlocking characters is a unique process that involves collecting items known as Prototype Analyzers. These are essential for unlocking new characters, except for the DLC characters, which are available for purchase. Our comprehensive *BlazBlue Entropy Effect* character unlock guide will walk you through obtaining Prototype Analyzers and provide a detailed list of all playable characters.
BlazBlue Entropy Effect: How To Unlock Characters
Your journey begins right after the tutorial, where you receive your first Prototype Analyzer. This initial boost directs you to the Acer Program room. Exit this room through the passage on your right, and you'll find yourself in a room with a glowing platform. Interact with this platform to access the character selection menu, and choose the character you wish to unlock.
For subsequent unlocks, return to this room and interact with the platform each time you acquire additional Prototype Analyzers. Note that DLC characters, such as Rachel and Hazama (available as of March 2025), are exceptions. 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 earn more Prototype Analyzers, each requiring time and effort.
Progress the Story
Advancing through the game's narrative and completing training missions will help you unlock gray skills. You'll earn a Prototype Analyzer upon reaching certain milestones:
- Unlocking 10 gray skills
- Unlocking 20 gray skills
- Unlocking 40 gray skills
Additionally, completing a key event later in the story will automatically grant you another Prototype Analyzer. Keep in mind that unlocking green skills through Potential does not yield Prototype Analyzers. Unless developer 91Act introduces more skills or additional ways to obtain these items through story quests, you can only acquire three Prototype Analyzers this way.
Complete Mind Challenges and Spend AP
Another method involves accumulating points from the Mind Challenge mode. You can then trade these points, known as AP, with the janitor to obtain a Prototype Analyzer. However, this process is not frequent, as each Prototype Analyzer requires 5,000 AP.
BlazBlue Entropy Effect: All Characters
As of March 2025, *BlazBlue Entropy Effect* features 12 characters, with 10 available in the base game and 2 as paid DLC. Here's a detailed look at each character, excluding the DLC characters that are unlocked through purchase.
Ragna the Bloodedge
Ragna is a melee fighter who thrives on close-range combat. His unique ability allows him to power up as his HP decreases, enabling him to sacrifice health for buffs and then siphon some of it back from his foes.
Jin Kisaragi
Jin is another melee specialist, focusing on intricate swordplay and ice-based skills. He can freeze enemies and, with well-timed combos, boost his strength and confuse foes with super speed.
Noel Vermillion
Noel excels in ranged combat, capable of launching missiles in any direction. Her special ability reduces skill cooldown times, and she can continue casting skills even after her MP hits zero using Over-Exhaust.
Taokaka
While Taokaka may struggle against heavily armored foes, her versatility in build options compensates for this. Her Spinny Spinny attack can hit enemies multiple times and build up status effects, making her adaptable to various playstyles.
Hakumen
Hakumen embodies the tank archetype, with slow but powerful attacks and the ability to withstand enemy onslaughts. Successfully blocking attacks allows him to counter with skills at a reduced MP cost, and he can be equipped with a midair attack for versatility.
Lambda-11
Lambda-11 is adept at both close and long-range combat. Her skills continue to damage enemies even when she's not directly attacking, making her a formidable opponent in any combat scenario.
Kokonoe
Kokonoe is often considered one of the weaker characters due to her reliance on managing lasers and crowd control effects. However, with the right damage-over-time build, she can be highly effective.
Hibiki Kohaku
Hibiki excels at evasion and crowd control, making him ideal for keeping enemies at bay. While not the most powerful, his ability to avoid damage makes him a valuable asset.
Es
Es is a versatile character who can counter after dodging, perform mid-air combos, and utilize crowd-control abilities. She's powerful even without unlocking potentials, making her a well-rounded choice.
Mai Nastume
Mai has a high skill ceiling and can be challenging to master. Her effectiveness lies in stringing together combos for maximum damage and mobility, with her Heavy Attack being a key component.
Rachel Alucard
Rachel is an overpowered character with exceptional speed and the ability to reset her dodge moves. Her abilities cover a wide area, and one of her moves is nearly impossible for enemies to evade, making her a top choice for players.
Hazama
Hazama requires strategic play due to his input-heavy moves. While there's a steep learning curve, mastering his skills makes him one of the game's strongest characters.
This covers all the characters in *BlazBlue Entropy Effect* and the methods to unlock them. *BlazBlue Entropy Effect is available now on PC.*
