Megabonk Character Guide: Unlocking All Playable Characters

If you’re a fan of indie games, you might have spent countless hours on Vampire Survivors. If so, you’ll likely find that Megabonk perfectly fulfills your gaming cravings.

While it may seem overly simplistic to describe Megabonk as a 3D reincarnation of the 2022 indie sensation, it captures the essence of that comparison. Both titles are roguelike shoot ’em ups that allow players to enhance their characters through a randomized selection of abilities and perks during gameplay. Each game sports a charming retro aesthetic and delivers an immensely enjoyable experience. The key distinction lies in the visual perspective; while Vampire Survivors presents a 2D style, Megabonk embraces a vibrant 3D world. And let’s not forget, it’s also brimming with delightful puns.

One of Megabonk’s standout features is its diverse array of characters—20 in total, with 18 being unlockable. If you’re eager to expand your roster, the following instructions will prove helpful.

Many of these unlock challenges can be tackled naturally while playing the game. However, certain tasks, like locating specific characters, can prove to be quite challenging.

If you’re finding these tasks daunting, it might be a sign that you need more practice in Megabonk.
