It can be hard to judge who to use in a new game, and Grimlight is no different. Having released in early July 2022, the game has a wide cast of characters to choose from. As such, here's our Grimlight tier list to help you out now that the servers are live.
Featuring many characters from fairytales and lore that we know and love - from Dracula to Cinderella - Grimlight's heroes wait for you in the land of Phantasia. Here, dreams and legends are the norm, but are threatened by the Dreamless, and you must assemble your team to fight back against the evil.
If mobile gaming is your thing, then we recommend some other titles too: check out Dislyte tier list.There's also an Echoes of Mana tier list worth checking out if you're a future fan of Square Enix's mobile take on a classic JRPG. And let's not forget Grimlight codes to help you pull.
Grimlight tier list
| Tier | Character |
|---|---|
| S | Thumbelina, Briar White, Cinderella, Dracula, Red Knight, Aurora, Red, Queen Of Hearts, Alice |
| A | Prince Siegfried, White Rabbit, Goldilocks, Cowardly Lion, Geppetto, Dorothy, Esme, Tin Knight, Bathory, Mad Hatter, Briar Rose, White Knight |
| B | Hansel, Gretel, March Hare, Kaguya, Snow White, Little Match Girl, Scarecrow, Robin Hood, The Beast, Hook, Ginger |
| C | Mage, Rapunzel, The Huntsman, Sage, Belle, Caterpillar, Cheshire Cat, Rangers, Guardian, Tamamo No Mae, Winter Queen, Little Mermaid |
| D | Vita, Big Bad Wolf, Warrior, Puss, Assassins, Obette, Odile, Saffi, Otohime |
The Grimlight tier list above ranks all the heroes from S to D-tier. As the game is very new, this is likely to change! We'll update our list when the community gets into the game, and some favourite characters start to appear.
Ideally, you want to aim for any S-tier character right out of the gate. If you don't manage to get one with the first lot of free pulls you can manage, it's worth deleting your data and trying again. We'll have the proper Grimlight reroll method down to a tee once the game goes live.
What is Grimlight?
click to enlargeEight Studio's new game Grimlight focuses on well-known characters from fairytales and legends and gives them new life as heroes in Phantasia.
Your role is to create a strong team as the Dreamer, to banish the darkness that has overtaken the land and lords of old. You'll discover lost memories and stories to piece together the past. To go along with these anime-inspired reworks of familiar faces, you'll get a slew of strong weapons, each of which you can customise and strengthen.
Check out the official website and Twitter here for more lore and a look at some of the heroes.
When will more Grimlight characters come out?
Following the launch issues, the Grimlight team outlined a bunch of new characters set to arrive over the coming months. Briar Rose was the first of these to release in July, but here's who else is set to drop throughout the year:
- Van Helsing
- Evil Queen
- Kang Rim
Two more characters were also teased on the Discord, but their figures were purposefully hidden. One could have been Prince Seigfried, who released on August 10.
