Megabonk ships with 20 characters, 18 of which are unlockable. If you want every face in the roster, you will do a mix of in-run challenges and purchases from the unlock shop after earning silver coins. The game has retro-inspired visuals and a playful sense of humor, and it launched on PC on September 18, 2025.
Most unlocks require you to complete a challenge in-game and then buy the associated weapon or item from the unlock store using silver coins. You earn silver coins at the end of runs, based on your performance and any modifiers you had active. Below is the full list of characters, along with instructions on how to unlock each one.
