Wildgate, a player-versus-player (PvP) multiplayer shooter that offers a gameplay experience akin to `Sea of Thieves` set in space, features a roster of seven distinct Prospectors that players can choose from. Initially, only three of these characters are accessible. Each Prospector boasts unique abilities and excels in different areas of the game. Fortunately, the process of unlocking the remaining four characters is quite straightforward and doesn`t take much time, provided you know the steps involved.
How to Unlock Every Wildgate Character
To gain access to the four locked characters—Sammo, Ion, Mophs, and Sal—you will need to complete the first tier of their respective Adventure reward tracks. These Adventure tracks function much like battle passes, but with a key difference: they are entirely free and are unlocked from the very beginning of the game. Before queuing for a match, it is essential to activate the specific Adventure you wish to progress. It`s important to note that experience points (XP) are only awarded in PvP matches; playing against CPU opponents will not yield any XP, so be sure to select the correct playlist.
Here are the Adventure tracks corresponding to each locked Prospector:
- Sammo – Hope Adventure
- Ion – Danger Adventure
- Mophs – Glory Adventure
- Sal – Knowledge Adventure
Each tier on an Adventure track typically requires approximately 70,000 XP to unlock. Daily missions offer a significant boost, providing up to 140,000 XP upon completion. Regular match participation can also contribute around 25,000 XP per game, with performance and victories potentially increasing this amount. While the full Adventure tracks offer various rewards, including new equipment and cosmetic items, the character unlocks are consistently found on the first tier. This efficient system allows you to unlock each new character in as few as three to four matches, even without relying on daily missions.
Each Prospector in Wildgate specializes in different activities, such as piloting, adventuring, or combat. Therefore, unlocking the complete roster allows players to choose a character that perfectly aligns with their preferred playstyle. The developers of Wildgate have also announced a roadmap for future updates, promising exciting new content for the shooter later this year, including additional Prospectors and points of interest.
