Unlocking characters in *BlazBlue Entropy Effect* involves a unique system that requires items known as Prototype Analyzers. These are essential for unlocking all new characters, except for the DLC characters, which you can access by purchasing them. Our comprehensive *BlazBlue Entropy Effect* character unlock guide will walk you through obtaining Prototype Analyzers and introduce you to every playable character in the game.
BlazBlue Entropy Effect: How To Unlock Characters
Your journey into unlocking characters begins right after completing the tutorial, where you receive your first Prototype Analyzer. This item sets you on the path to expanding your roster. To use it, 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 and choose your desired character to unlock.
For subsequent unlocks, you'll need more Prototype Analyzers. Return to the same room and interact with the platform again to select and unlock another character. Note that DLC characters like Rachel and Hazama, available as of March 2025, are unlocked automatically upon purchasing and installing their respective character packs.
BlazBlue Entropy Effect: How To Get More Prototype Analyzers
*Entropy Effect* provides several methods to acquire additional Prototype Analyzers, each requiring patience and dedication.
Progress the Story
As you advance through the game's narrative and complete training missions, you'll unlock gray skills. Reaching specific milestones such as unlocking 10, 20, and 40 gray skills rewards you with Prototype Analyzers. Additionally, completing a pivotal event later in the story grants you another Analyzer. However, unlocking green skills through Potential does not contribute to this reward system. Currently, without further updates from developer 91Act, you can only obtain three Prototype Analyzers this way.
Complete Mind Challenges and Spend AP
Another avenue involves the Mind Challenge mode, where you earn AP points. You can trade these points with the janitor for a Prototype Analyzer, though it's not a frequent opportunity. Each Analyzer costs 5,000 AP, so plan your spending wisely.
BlazBlue Entropy Effect: All Characters
As of March 2025, *BlazBlue Entropy Effect* boasts a roster of 12 characters, with 10 available in the base game and 2 additional characters as paid DLC. Here's a closer look at each character and how to unlock them using Prototype Analyzers.
Ragna the Bloodedge
Ragna is your classic melee fighter with a unique twist. As a close-range attacker, he gains power as his HP decreases, utilizing his health to buff himself and regain some life from his enemies.
Jin Kisaragi
Jin specializes in melee combat with elegant swordplay and ice-based skills. He can freeze opponents and, with well-timed combos, enhance his strength and confuse foes with increased speed.
Noel Vermillion
Noel excels in ranged combat, capable of launching missiles in various directions. Her unique ability reduces skill cooldown times, and she can continue casting skills even after her MP depletes with Over-Exhaust.
Taokaka
While Taokaka may struggle against heavily armored opponents, her versatility in builds compensates for this. Her Spinny Spinny attack allows for multiple hits and status effect accumulation, making her adaptable to various playstyles.
Hakumen
Hakumen embodies the tank archetype with his slow yet powerful attacks. He excels at absorbing damage and countering with reduced MP costs. With the right setup, including midair attacks, he can handle any enemy type effectively.
Lambda-11
Lambda-11 is versatile, adept at both close and long-range combat. Her skills continue to damage enemies even when she's not actively attacking, making her a strong choice for any combat scenario.
Kokonoe
Kokonoe may be considered weaker due to the need for precise management of lasers and crowd control. However, with the right damage-over-time build, she can be a formidable force.
Hibiki Kohaku
Hibiki excels at evasion and crowd control, making him perfect for keeping enemies at bay. Though not the strongest, his ability to avoid damage makes him a valuable asset.
Es
Es is incredibly powerful even without unlocking her full potential. She can counter after dodging, perform mid-air combos, and control crowds effectively, making her a well-rounded character.
Mai Nastume
Mai has a high skill ceiling, requiring mastery of her combos for maximum effectiveness. Her mobility and damage potential are high once you understand her mechanics.
Rachel Alucard
Rachel is exceptionally powerful, with speed and the ability to reset dodges. Her wide-reaching attacks and stunning abilities make her a top choice for players.
Hazama
Hazama demands strategic play due to his complex input-based moves. Mastering him unlocks one of the game's most potent characters, capable of overwhelming opponents with skill.
That covers all the characters in *BlazBlue Entropy Effect* and how to unlock them. The game is currently available on PC, offering players a diverse and engaging experience with its unique character unlock system.
