Unlocking characters in BlazBlue: Entropy Effect is a unique process. Unlike many fighting games, you'll need Prototype Analyzers to add new fighters to your roster (excluding paid DLC characters like Rachel and Hazama). This guide explains how to acquire these Analyzers and lists every playable character.

You'll receive your first Prototype Analyzer after completing the tutorial. Follow the in-game instructions to access the character selection menu—it's a glowing platform in a room accessible through a passage to the right of the Acer Program room. Select your desired character to begin.

Subsequent Prototype Analyzers unlock additional characters via the same glowing platform. Remember, DLC characters (like Rachel and Hazama, as of March 2025) are automatically unlocked upon purchase and installation.

BlazBlue Entropy Effect: How To Get More Prototype Analyzers

Earning more Prototype Analyzers in Entropy Effect takes time and dedication. Here are the methods:

Story Progression: Unlocking gray skills through story missions rewards Analyzers at specific milestones: 10, 20, and 40 gray skills unlocked. You'll also receive one automatically after a key story event (no spoilers!). Note: Unlocking green skills via Potential does not grant Analyzers.

Mind Challenges: Complete Mind Challenges to earn AP (Action Points). Trade these AP with the janitor; each Prototype Analyzer costs 5,000 AP.
