Unlocking characters in *BlazBlue Entropy Effect* is a unique experience that involves collecting items called Prototype Analyzers. These are essential for unlocking new characters, with the exception of DLC characters that you can purchase. Our comprehensive *BlazBlue Entropy Effect* character unlock guide will walk you through how to obtain 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 propels you into the world of character unlocking. To proceed, exit the Acer Program room through the passage on your right, leading you to a room with a glowing platform. Interact with this platform to access the character selection menu, allowing you to choose your next character.
Subsequent Prototype Analyzers enable you to return to this room and interact with the platform again to unlock additional characters. However, DLC characters like Rachel and Hazama, available as of March 2025, are automatically unlocked upon purchasing and installing their respective character packs.
BlazBlue Entropy Effect: How To Get More Prototype Analyzers
In *Entropy Effect*, there are several methods to acquire additional Prototype Analyzers, each requiring patience and dedication.
Progress the Story
As you advance through *BlazBlue Entropy Effect*’s narrative and complete training missions, you’ll unlock gray skills. Reaching specific milestones in this journey rewards you with Prototype Analyzers:
- Unlocking 10 gray skills
- Unlocking 20 gray skills
- Unlocking 40 gray skills
Additionally, completing a pivotal event later in the story will automatically grant you another Prototype Analyzer. Note that unlocking green skills through Potential does not provide these items, and unless developer 91Act introduces new methods, you can only obtain three Prototype Analyzers this way.
Complete Mind Challenges and Spend AP
Another avenue is through the Mind Challenge mode, where you can earn points. By speaking to the janitor, you can trade 5,000 AP for a Prototype Analyzer. However, this option is not readily available, as accumulating enough AP requires significant effort.
BlazBlue Entropy Effect: All Characters
As of March 2025, *BlazBlue Entropy Effect* boasts 12 characters—10 from the base game and 2 as paid DLC. Here's a rundown of each character and how to unlock them using Prototype Analyzers, except for the DLC characters.
Ragna the Bloodedge
Ragna is a melee fighter with a unique twist. He thrives in close combat and gains power as his HP decreases. His signature move involves sacrificing health to enhance his abilities, then regaining some health by draining it from his foes.
Jin Kisaragi
Jin excels in melee combat with a focus on intricate swordplay and ice-based skills. He can freeze opponents, boost his strength through well-timed combos, and utilize super speed to confuse his enemies.
Noel Vermillion
Noel is a ranged combat specialist, capable of launching volleys of missiles in any direction. She also possesses the ability to reduce her skill cooldown times and can continue using skills even when her MP hits zero through Over-Exhaust.
Taokaka
Although Taokaka may struggle against heavily armored foes, her versatility in build options compensates for this. Her Spinny Spinny attack allows for multiple hits and the accumulation of status effects, making her adaptable to various playstyles.
Hakumen
Hakumen embodies the tank archetype, with his slow but powerful attacks and high durability. He can counter enemy attacks at a reduced MP cost and can be equipped with a midair attack to tackle any enemy type effectively.
Lambda-11
Lambda-11 excels in both close and long-range combat, making her a versatile choice. She possesses skills that continue to damage enemies even when not directly engaged and can adapt to various combat scenarios.
Kokonoe
Kokonoe is often considered one of the weaker characters due to her reliance on careful management of lasers and crowd control effects. However, with the right damage-over-time build, she can be highly effective.
Hibiki Kohaku
Hibiki specializes in evasion and crowd control, keeping enemies at bay. Although not the most powerful, his ability to avoid damage makes him a valuable asset in group encounters.
Es
Es is exceptionally powerful, capable of countering after dodging and executing mid-air combos. Her crowd control abilities and versatility make her a well-rounded choice for any player.
Mai Nastume
Mai has a high skill ceiling, requiring mastery of her combo system. Her Heavy Attack is a standout feature, but her true potential lies in chaining combos for maximum damage and mobility.
Rachel Alucard
Rachel is an overpowered character with exceptional speed and the ability to reset her dodge moves. Her area-of-effect abilities are difficult for enemies to evade, and her stunning attacks make her a dominant force on the battlefield.
Hazama
Hazama demands strategic play, with complex input moves that require more than simple button mashing. Mastering his skills leads to him being one of the strongest characters in *BlazBlue Entropy Effect*.
