How To Unlock All Characters In Wildgate

Wildgate, the PvP multiplayer shooter that plays sort of like Sea of Thieves in space, features a roster of seven different Prospectors you can play as. To start, you only have access to three of the seven, all of whom have unique abilities and excel at different aspects of the game, but unlocking the other four Prospectors doesn’t take too long, so long as you know where to check.

How to unlock every Wildgate character

To unlock the four locked characters–Sammo, Ion, Mophs, and Sal–you will need to unlock the first tier of the corresponding Adventure reward track. The Adventure reward tracks function like battle passes, but these ones don’t cost real money and all of them are unlocked from the start of the game. You will need to activate the Adventure prior to queueing up for a match. XP is only awarded in PvP matches, playing matches against CPUs does not award XP, so make sure you are selecting the correct playlist.

Locked Prospectors Adventures:

• Sammo – Hope Adventure
• Ion – Danger Adventure
• Mophs – Glory Adventure
• Sal – Knowledge Adventure

It takes about 70,000 XP to unlock a tier on an Adventure track. Daily missions offer up to 140,000 XP if completed, while regular match XP can offer around 25,000 XP per match, depending on performance, with more awarded for winning. The rest of the Adventure tracks feature new equipment and cosmetics you can unlock, but the character unlocks are always on the first tier, so you can unlock each character in three to four matches without the daily missions.

Each character in Wildgate specializes in different activities, piloting, adventuring, and combat, so unlocking the rest of the roster can allow you to pick a character that better fits your playstyle. The Wildgate developers have released a roadmap detailing new content coming to the shooter in future updates, including new Prospectors and POIs, later this year.
