Overview

Heroes come in a wide variety in Deadlock, each with their own specialisations and playstyles. Each hero wields their own unique primary weapon which has its own name, stats and weapon type. Weapons are affected by Weapon Class Items and are the primary means of dealing damage for most heroes. Some weapons possess an alternate fire mode activated with RMB.

Besides their weapons, heroes also possess 4 unique abilities with a variety of effects. Some abilities are completely passive, and will always be active regardless (such as   Abrams'   Infernal Resilience), though most are simply activated with their respective bindings (1, 2, 3, 4 by default). Abilities come with up to 3 upgrades, which can be purchased with an increasing number of Ability Points. Abilities most often scale with Spirit Power.

Heroes have set base stats that they can improve through leveling up or purchasing items. They also have additional Power Increases, gained at specific levels which grant bonuses to specific stats. Heroes can hold up to 9 individual items at a time. This can be increased to 12 items if Extra Slots are unlocked. Some hero stats are also affected by Spirit Power, referred to as Spirit Scaling.

38 heroes are currently available, with additional characters confirmed for future releases.

Unused Heroes

There are a number of heroes in Deadlock that can, or could only be accessed using console commands. Some of them are older heroes inherited from Neon Prime, while others were added to the game more recently. Some of these heroes were playable in the Hero Labs experimental gamemode, and were later removed.

Heroes that were playable in the Hero Labs gamemode, and removed along with it.

Trivia

  • At one point in early development, the Heroes were called Fates.[1] The Hero backstories were previously called "A Fate's Tale".
  • In the French localization, the Heroes are called Occultistes.
