DIRECT ANSWER
Ten at launch, twelve with Deluxe
The four returning from the film
These are reimagined versions rather than archive likenesses, and each has a credited voice performer. All four are in the Standard edition, and all four appear in the story mode as well as being playable in multiplayer.
| Character | Voice | Described as |
|---|---|---|
| Laurie Strode | Chelsea Krause | The quintessential final girl |
| Annie Brackett | Kaitlyn Robrock | Rebellious and funny |
| Lynda van der Klok | Angela Carbone | Ever-confident |
| Bob Simms | Nicholas Leung | The brawny boyfriend |
The six created for this game
The new residents are written as ordinary Haddonfield townspeople rather than as archetypes, and their published biographies are background rather than mechanics. One quirk is worth flagging: the developer’s roster post profiles only five of them. The sixth, Eric, appears by name on the civilian select screen in the official progression screenshots but has no written profile, so his surname is not public.
| Character | Occupation or role |
|---|---|
| Thomas Armitage | College football player, helps at the family furniture business |
| Jennifer Aarons | Bookstore employee saving for tuition |
| Tanya Harrison | Record store employee |
| Rachel Calahan | Funeral service student |
| Marcus Navarro | Motorcycle enthusiast |
| Eric | No published profile; named on the select screen |
Richard and Alexis are bought, not unlocked
Costumes come from the story mode
Each civilian ships with a default multiplayer outfit, and completing challenges in the single-player story unlocks alternates — including looks drawn from the original film. That links two parts of the game people often treat separately: if you want the film-accurate version of a character for multiplayer, the route runs through single-player challenges rather than through match rewards.
Why there is no tier list
The developer has published biographies, voice credits and appearance details. It has not published ability values, stat differences or any indication that civilians differ mechanically at all. Until something establishes that they do, ranking them would be inventing a distinction the source material does not make. Pick the one you want to look at for a few hundred matches.
Frequently asked questions
Can two players pick the same civilian?
Nothing published addresses duplicate picks in a lobby. Civilian levels are tracked per character, which implies individual identity, but that is not the same as a stated rule.
Is Michael a character you unlock?
No. Michael is the killer role in the 1v4 mode and the protagonist of the story mode. His customisation runs through killer and weapon progression rather than through the civilian roster.
Will more characters be added?
No post-launch roster additions have been announced. The only characters beyond the ten are the two Deluxe entitlements.
