Heroes

Translate this page

Heroes are powerful characters in Whiteout Survival that provide unique skills and stat bonuses to your city, troops, and expeditions. Each hero has a specific rarity, class, and sub-class that defines their role and abilities.

Hero Rarities

Heroes come in three rarity tiers, from lowest to highest:

Rare — Beginner-friendly heroes, easier to acquire and upgrade
Epic — Mid-tier heroes with strong utility skills
Legendary — High-power heroes with impactful passive and active abilities

Hero Classes

Heroes belong to one of three troop classes and one of two sub-classes:

Classes: Infantry, Lancer, Marksman
Sub-classes: Combat — military and battle enhancements · Growth/Construction — city growth, resource gathering, and building speed

Generations

Heroes are released in generations (seasons). Generation 0 is the original roster of Rare and Epic heroes available from the start. From Generation 1 onward, each generation adds Legendary heroes — generally a trio with one Infantry, one Lancer and one Marksman — so all three classes advance together. The current roster spans Generation 0 to Generation 17, and each hero's generation is shown in its infobox.
