This guide will shed some light on all the different characters that will be playable upon the game’s official launch. We have expanded on each of their backgrounds and abilities. Let’s check them out!
Oliver
Oliver is the first hero that all players will get for free. He’s not only the face of the game but also a cheerful character that will guide you through the campaign mode. Crafty, fun-loving, and constantly getting in trouble. This all-rounder is a jack of all trades and a collateral damage specialist, making him ideal for learning the ropes. His ‘Acreambo Pistols‘ may cause problems for adversaries at all ranges, with the ability to shoot a large number of shots in rapid succession. These are supplemented by his strong ‘Bearzooka‘ Ultimate, which causes huge damage and eliminates obstructions. Oliver is a strong choice for any mode.
Huggy (Huggables)
Huggables speak only one sentence – “Hug me!” These colorful animals are strangely feared for their lethal embraces. This Hero, a quick navigator and melee specialist, thrives in close combat, turning his simplicity into a lethal weapon. Huggy’s Ultimate, So Fly, allows him to soar across huge areas of the game, inflicting additional damage to enemies when he lands. Furthermore, Huggy’s assault accelerates his mending with each blow, enhancing his overall resilience and recovery rate.
Riggs
Riggs is a brave and strategic leader who blends Captain America’s heroism with Jean Luc Picard’s intelligence. He’s protective, understanding when to stand firm or strategically withdraw, and always putting his team’s safety and success first. Riggs’ ultimate highlights his incredible leaping and ground-smashing abilities, which disturb foes and terrain equally. He excels in close combat, using his “Beebee gun,” which fires a burst of shells at a single opponent, causing great damage and proving devastating at short ranges.
Astoria
Astoria has no patience for Oliver and Wil’s infantile antics. Don’t let her chilly statements and serious demeanour deceive you; she genuinely cares about the Battle Bears. Astoria uses a sniper rifle to launch long-range strikes, causing more damage from afar. Up close, she is vulnerable, but she compensates with her “Explosive Retreat” Ultimate, which allows her to dive away from the action when adversaries approach too close.
Wil
Wil is a chub scout, also known as the Masticator of Mayhem, who thrives on balancing the battlefield with his voracious need for devastation. Many have made the mistake of underestimating Wil, and many have paid the price. Wil’s “Boomstick” assault fires explosive pellets that burst upon impact, covering a large area. His Ultimate, “Sarcastic Air Strike,” depicts A.B.B.I., his mocking robot backpack, carrying off a catastrophic airstrike that rains destruction over the battlefield.
Tillman
Tillman has an explosive personality with an even more explosive moveset. Formerly a fierce enemy of the Battle Bears, the little guy mended his ways after discovering the power of friendship. Tillman’s “Blast-o-Mole” move involves unleashing a robotic mole that burrows and bursts, hitting adversaries in its blast zone before disappearing. His Ultimate, “Firework Flurry,” unleashes a barrage of fireworks over a specific region, generating continuous explosions that extend further away.
Graham
Graham, a charming mechanic and machine specialist, uses his brain for area control, team support, and the occasional crossword puzzle. Graham’s “Photon Refractor” bounces between surrounding adversaries, dealing increasingly less damage with each jump. His Ultimate, “Turret Summon,” enables him to summon a gun turret from scrap that auto-targets and fires at foes in its proximity.
Saberi
Saberi, the powerful healer and mommy bear, demands respect and excels in support positions, making her a valuable addition to any team. Saberi’s “Huggable Splicer” move sprays a large number of huggable parts in a sweeping motion, making it perfect for hitting several adversaries despite its inaccuracy. She is less effective in single, long-range engagements. Her Ultimate, “Healing Turret,” creates a healing radius around her and her teammates that excludes non-player units.
B1000
A secret attacker was fixated with the Battle Bears’ abilities, intending to destroy them and share their info other villains. The B1000’s twin functionality assault ‘Slice n Bite’ provides both range and melee, making for a formidable combo. The former, combined with his devastating Ultimate, which has stun capabilities, makes B1000 a formidable foe on the battlefield.
Botch
Botch, a bear with very few words and a murky past, possesses incredible radioactive abilities. He is a tough foe, known for his terrifying ranged powers as well as his quick movement speed. However, his biggest shortcoming is his poor health. Botch’s “Doom Star” operates as a boomerang, potentially doing double damage, while his “Doom Cloud” Super unleashes a bullet-raining cloud, causing broad damage.
Sanchez
Sanchez has been resurrected and reengineered from near death, and he is now an agility master. He effortlessly circles his opponents, commanding the battlefield with unrivaled mobility. Sanchez’s “Adrenaline Gun” fires four staggered rounds with a quick reload time. His ultimate ability “Speed Field,” creates a region that dramatically increases his and his allies’ movement speed while bringing mayhem to groups of foes.
Necromancer
The Necromancer is a mysterious dark wizard and the famous enemy of 2009’s Battle Bears Zombies. He is an old huggable who is revered by some as a god of the huggable species. The Necromancer wields a “Scythe of Death” to deal massive, unavoidable damage, and his Super, “Tornado of Souls,” summons three undead Huggables, making him a fearsome presence on the battlefield.
Jackson
Revived following his ‘accident’ in Battle Bears Negative 1, Jackson will not fall for the same trap again. He’s more mobile than ever and ready to exact revenge on the huggables who forced him into his chair. Jackson’s flamethrower assault leaves adversaries wishing they had packed sunblock. Steer wary of his ultimate: Jackson surges forward, leaving a trail of fire behind him; those caught in his charge will suffer considerable damage.
Nyx
Nobody knows why Nyx defected from the Battle Bears team to join the HIP (Huggable Instrumentality Project), but her swift advancement through the ranks is well documented. This traitor is a deception expert and a skilled knife thrower. Nyx throws four knives in a direct line, causing more damage to those facing away from her (like a true spy). Her ultimate provides her six seconds of invisibility, which is great for getaways or ambushes; but, striking or receiving damage briefly reveals her.
Swanny
This notorious bounty hunter, a member of a rival club called the Alpha Bears, could find anyone for a high price. Swanny’s “Tracer Rifle” tracks foes on hit, dealing less damage than Astoria’s Sniper Rifle but maintaining steady monitoring even in cover. His Ultimate, “Stealth Snare,” creates invisible explosive traps to protect critical regions, although he can only use one at a time.
