Hyper Light Breaker: How to Unlock All Characters

Hyper Light Breaker Character Guide: Unlockable Breakers and Playstyles

Hyper Light Breaker offers a diverse roster of characters, each with unique playstyles. This guide covers all currently available characters and how to unlock them in the early access version.

How to Unlock New Characters

To unlock new characters, you need Abyss Stones, obtained by defeating Crowns (bosses). First, locate Prisms (represented by golden diamond icons on the map) to access boss arenas. After defeating a Crown, return to the Cursed Outpost teleporter and select the Breaker you wish to unlock using your accumulated Abyss Stones. Currently, only two characters are unlockable via this method; the process for future characters may differ.

All Characters and Their SyComs

Each character begins with a SyCom, defining their base stats and core abilities, shaping their combat style.

Vermillion:

• Default SyCom: Gunslinger: Favors ranged combat; critical hits guarantee a subsequent critical hit.
• Unlockable SyCom: Tank: Rewards perfect parries with increased armor; boasts superior defensive and melee stats.

Lapis:

• Default SyCom: Lightweaver: Increases Rail shot damage after collecting a Battery.
• Unlockable SyCom: Warrior: Boosts core stats with each upgrade, making her exceptionally powerful late-game.

Goro:

• Default SyCom: Astrologer: Accelerates Blade skill charge while firing.
• Unlockable SyCom: Sniper: Significantly increases critical hit rate. A high-risk, high-reward ranged character.

This guide will be updated as more characters become available in Hyper Light Breaker.
