Resident Evil Survival Unit Artwork 6

Starting strong in Resident Evil Survival Unit means assembling a team led by meta-proven S-Tier heroes. The game’s innovative “no paid gacha” recruitment system takes the randomness out of the equation, you’re able to directly purchase or unlock top units at launch. Use this guide to reroll efficiently and secure elite survivors like Leon S. Kennedy or Jill Valentine without wasting your valuable time.

Understanding Hero Recruitment & Rerolling

Unlike traditional gacha games where luck determines your pulls, Resident Evil Survival Unit lets you buy the exact hero you want directly from the in-game shop. All characters are also unlockable for free by progressing through the story or completing achievements, though this takes longer.

Reroll Tier List: Who to Target First

Focus your reroll efforts on these S-Tier and A-Tier picks for the smoothest start:

HeroTierWhy They’re Top-Tier
Leon S. KennedySBalanced DPS, self-heal, stuns, and crowd control
Jill ValentineSAoE attacks, buffs, exceptional for both offense and defense
Chris RedfieldATanky frontline, strong pressure, great for tough missions
Barry BurtonAUtility, burst potential, solid future meta value

For the perfect launch, aim for Leon or Jill as your primary recruit.

Fastest Reroll Steps

Follow these efficient steps for a head start:

  1. Download the game, launch, and complete the opening missions/tutorial.
  2. Claim all early Gems and resource rewards from achievements and your in-game mailbox (especially pre-registration bundles).
  3. Check the in-game shop; see if you have enough Gems to buy an S-Tier hero.
  4. If you don’t get the hero you want, reset your account:
    • Android: Clear app data in device settings.
    • iOS: Delete and reinstall the app.
    • Some versions: Use in-game detach/reset account functionality.
  5. Repeat until you can recruit your target S-Tier hero.

Advanced Reroll Tips

  • Leverage Alliance Play: Join an alliance early for extra resources, faster mission progress, and social rewards.
  • Save Your Gems: Use Gems exclusively for purchasing S-Tier heroes at launch, not for bundles or minor upgrades.
  • Think Synergy: Pair your main hero with early free units like Claire Redfield (support) or Carlos Oliveira (offensive utility) for a more balanced squad.
  • Use Pre-Registration Rewards: These speed up rerolling with Gems and Flare Guns to boost hero acquisition.

Essential Resources

Master the reroll process and you’ll launch your squad with a distinct competitive edge, making every battle through Raccoon City easier from the very start!
