Forsaken Tier List: Best Characters (October 2026)

In Forsaken there are no pets or weapons to collect. What decides the result is who you play: a killer or a survivor. That is why this ranking is a character tier list, as of 17 October 2026.

This is our editorial rating, based on ability descriptions and a few rankings from around the web. Tier lists in this game differ a lot, so at the end I explain where the sources disagree.

How to read this ranking

Forsaken has no ranked mode and does not publish win statistics. That is why, as Forsaken Hub writes, there are no "real" win rates, and the ones going around online would be made up. Every tier list is an opinion, based on what a character can do.

A tier also depends on your playstyle. A character with a 5/5 difficulty rating will not help if you are only just learning the game.

When it comes to getting new characters, Player Points matter. In public rounds you get +25 for surviving to the end, and a killer gets +10 for every kill. You can save these for more characters. We give character prices based on Forsaken Hub, and they may have changed after patches.

New: Helperbot

Helperbot is a Support type survivor who was due to join the game on 16 October 2026. The announcement on X gave the same date. Forsaken Hub writes that the character came into the game in that update.

He has 80 HP. His pulse gives nearby survivors regeneration (15 HP in 5 seconds) and 20% less damage for 5 seconds. This description comes from a wiki page that may have been written before release, so the abilities and numbers may still change.

He is not in the ranking. Forsaken Hub also left him unrated, because he has too few matches played.

Killer tier list

S-tier

• John Doe: Corrupt Energy places 31 spikes that close off an area for 14 seconds, Digital Footprint traps reveal and slow victims, and 404 Error shows all living survivors for 6 seconds. He also has the smallest noise radius in the game (60 studs). So he gets close before anyone hears him. Difficulty 5/5, cost 1000 Player Points.
• Noli: Hallucinations make it harder to hide and do tasks, and at the start of the round Noli places fake generators. He can also teleport to any generator. The cost is 1100 Player Points.
• 1x1x1x1: He can resurrect killed players as zombies that fight for him. In a 1 vs 1 he is one of the worst opponents.

A-tier

• Guest 666: When he sees a survivor, he gets extra speed. His attacks apply bleeding. He landed in A because his kit can be countered in loops.
• Azure: Added in 5.0.0, and according to Forsaken Hub he costs 2000 Player Points. He has the biggest set of abilities and a Golem form that changes his stats. Forsaken Hub rates him A because his plants reveal survivors, but 1500 HP and placing plants take a lot of work.
• Nosferatu: Available as a reward from the Masquerade event, he has the highest difficulty level in this ranking, and his footsteps make no sound.

B-tier

• c00lkidd: He has been free since update 5.0.0. Solid, but in most rankings he does not get ahead of the rest.

C-tier

• Slasher (Jason): He is the easiest killer to start with, with Beginner difficulty. Weak at a high level, but good for learning.

Survivor tier list

S-tier

• Guest 1337: He has 110 HP, the most among survivors. Block fully blocks a basic attack, Charge pushes the killer back, and Punch applies Helpless and Slowness. There is one catch: sacrificing yourself only pays off if someone on the team makes use of it, so it is a team choice, not a solo one. Cost: 500 Player Points.
• Veeronica: She combines self-healing with an ability that ends a chase, and her kit is forgiving for new players.

A-tier

• Two Time: He has Ritual, a respawn point for a second life. In solo queue, a second chance like that is worth more than healing from a stranger, although 80 HP shortens the first life.
• Jane Doe: The only character you earn rather than buy. Since 5.0.0 her Shatterpoint gets 10% weaker for every additional Jane Doe in the match.
• Shedletsky: This rating is based on older descriptions and has not been confirmed in the latest sources.
• Dusekkar: He is good at disrupting the killer from a distance, without getting close.

B-tier

• Builderman: He places a Sentry that slows the killer and a Dispenser that heals nearby.
• OO7n7: He creates clones and teleports using the c00lgui tablet. Good, but it takes some feel for the game.
• Elliot and Chance: Their rating is uncertain, because the sources differ a lot and the latest ones do not confirm their descriptions.

C-tier

• Noob: The most balanced survivor, good for beginners, but weaker than characters from the higher tiers. Taph also usually lands low. Pocket Gamer gives both a C.

Where the sources disagree

There is no agreement, especially among killers. Some lists put c00lkidd and John Doe at the top, while newer opinions point to Guest 666 and Nosferatu. Forsaken Hub puts John Doe and Noli in S. Others give 1x1x1x1 S-tier.

It is similar with Elliot: one list gives him S, others C. A rating also depends on whether the list was made before the latest balance patches. That is why you should look at the date of the ranking and check a few sources.

What to pick to start

1. Start with the free characters and collect Player Points.
2. As a survivor, aim for Guest 1337 (500 Player Points) or Veeronica.
3. As a killer, take Slasher to learn, and then John Doe or Noli.
4. There are no codes, because the game has no system for entering them. Be careful with sites that promise free codes.
