Updated: May 4, 2026

Added all missing characters as well as adjusted the tier list to reflect the current meta.

In a game like Bite By Night, the most essential thing that decides the fate of any match is the Survivor or Animatronics you choose, as it literally dictates how you are going to play the game. While certain characters like Medic or Mimic may sound fascinating, there are better characters as you play in tougher lobbies. Here is a dedicated tier list guide for all the characters in Bite By Night.

Below, you can find all the Survivors ranked by the effectiveness of their kits in match scenarios. We favor those kits which can help the rest of the team (along with yourself) in a game, including healing and stuns.
