While players will have to spend a majority of the story in Solo Leveling: Arise Overdrive playing as Sung Jinwoo, the game features over 20 playable characters that the player can use during optional stages and when playing online with friends. These characters all have their own unique skills, playstyles, and weapons to be grinded for as well. Because the method of obtaining these characters can be quite random (but rest assured it isn’t a gacha like normal Arise), it can be difficult to get a handle on knowing which characters from the Webtoon are actually in this game. If you are curious about who is playable, or just want to check on what a character’s stats and weapon-type is, then please consult this guide on all playable Hunters in Solo Leveling: Arise Overdrive and how to unlock them.
Hunters Obtained During the Story
At first, Solo Leveling: Arise Overdrive is quite generous in giving the player a full party to use, with there being three major characters who become playable during the first few chapters of the game. Listed below are all of the mandatory Hunters that are recruited during the story.

Hunters Obtained Via Recruitment
While you’ll be obtaining the above Hunters via progressing through the story, every other Hunter in the game must be obtained through the Recruitment mechanic unlocked during Chapter 4 of the game. To recruit a character, walk to the bottom floor of the lobby and speak to Lim Hajim. This will lead you to a screen where you will be given three completely random options for who you can recruit to your team.
Once you have selected someone to recruit, you’ll transition into negotiation, where you must offer the character Hunter Coins to increase the odds that they’ll join your squad. Each Hunter has a recruitment difficulty that will determine how many Hunter Coins are required to make them join your team. Easy Difficulty recruitment will require only 100 coins for a 45% chance of joining your team while Hard Difficulty recruitment will require 900 coins for a 30% chance. You will have only three chances to recruit a character before the negotiation fails and you must try again later.
There is also a method of bypassing recruitment where the player can pay the hunter with Bounty Posters, however these are incredibly rare and should only be used if you are trying to get your favorite character. Below is a list off all Hunters that can be obtained through recruitment
