How to Unlock Reaper and Valkyrie in Death Must Die
In Death Must Die, some characters must be unlocked to become playable. Find out how to get Reaper and Valkyrie in this guide.
Death Must Die is a roguelike bullet-hell where heroes attempt to fight the Death himself with the help of blessings from various gods. Each character has their unique playstyle and strengths, and the player is encouraged to experience each of their gameplay. That is because the previous hero unlocks the next. However, two of the characters are obtained in unique ways. Find out how to face Death as Reaper or Valkyrie.
How to Unlock Reaper and Valkyrie in Death Must Die
The first character all players can use by default is Avolon, The Knight. After completing several runs as him, you gain access to Merris, The Sorceress. This method of playing the previously unlocked character to obtain a new one is used to get the majority of the cast. However, Reaper and Valkyrie are exceptions.
How to get Reaper in Death Must Die
Unlocking Reaper in Death Must Die is surprisingly easy (at least in theory). All you need to do to play as the Scythe-wielding hero is to complete the game once, at any difficulty. After you do so, the Reaper will be available from your next playthrough, and you will be able to use his skills in close combat.
How to get Valkyrie in Death Must Die
Obtaining Valkyrie as a playable character could be considered the ultimate challenge in the game. That is because, to unlock Valkyrie, you have to collect all available achievements in Death Must Die and gain 100% completion. However, the effort will be worth it as Valkyrie is an offensive and defensive powerhouse, and she will make your next fight against Death a breeze.
