Battleborn: How to Unlock All Characters

Battleborn is finally out with its FPS/MOBA hybrid action. Like other MOBAs, the game’s strength is its collection of unique heroes. There are 25 in total at the moment, with a vast majority of them needing to be unlocked.

For you to get the most out of Battleborn, you’re probably going to want to unlock each and every one of the heroes available. It will take a bit of work, but none are so difficult where they’re impossible. Here’s how to get every character in Battleborn:

Completing the Prologue, which you have to do when you first boot the game up, unlocks your first seven characters:

• Miko
• Montana
• Orendi
• Oscar Mike
• Rath
• Thorn
• Marquis

The rest of the Battleborn are unlocked by one of two ways. Reaching a specific Command Rank or completing a specific challenge. Here’s how to get each of those characters.

Shayne & Aroux – Reach Command Rank 6 or Complete 5 co-op missions/matches with at least one other player.

Reyna – Reach Command Rank 8 or get 50 assists in Versus.

Benedict – Reach Command Rank 10 or win 5 matches as a Peacekeeper (denoted by the green shield near the Battleborn’s name).

Galilea – Reach Command Rank 12 or kill 800 minions.

Ambra – Reach Command Rank 14 or win 5 matches as a Jennerit (denoted by the red triangle near the Battleborn’s name).
