Kaiju No. 8 The Game Tier List

This tier list focuses on overall performance across PvE expectations. As the game evolves, the meta will shift and units will move between tiers. Characters are placed based on overall kit strength, team impact, and how consistently they perform in most content.

New modes have been added for end-game content, which means more high-level characters are needed. We need four teams of four characters, so the meta could include more units.

Similarly, a new character upgrade method called Unlock Potential has been added; this could bring older units back into the current meta.

Now, there are a few things to consider regarding the game. Kaiju N. The Game has been releasing up to three units per month, which makes it extremely difficult to keep track of everything in detail. However, the units that have been added to the game recently haven't been as strong as their predecessors. Still, they're useful, so most of the latest releases are in Tier 1 or 2.

Kaiju No. 8 The Game groups characters into three main roles:

• Attacker: Main damage dealers and burst specialists.
• Defender: Tanks, shielders, and frontline protectors.
• Supporter: Buffers, debuffers, and utility enablers.

[T0 Apex] The best units for most content.

[T1 Meta] Strong picks with high impact.

[T2 Solid] Reliable choices with minor limitations.

[T3 Situational] Useful in specific teams or fights.

[T4 Niche] Usually outclassed.

[T5 Filler] Mostly for filler units.
