Bite by Night features four survivor classes and three killers with unique abilities and playstyles. Some survivors excel at supporting teams while others focus on combat, and killers vary in damage output and utility. This tier list ranks all survivors and killers based on their effectiveness in matches. Here's the complete Bite by Night tier list for both roles.

  • Security Guard and Fighter dominate S tier for survivors due to their game-changing abilities. Security Guard provides team-wide information through cameras while Fighter can actually fight back and protect teammates. Medic sits in A tier with essential healing but less impact than top tier picks. Customer is the weakest option as a basic starter class.
  • For killers, Mimic takes S tier with the highest damage and mode-switching versatility. Ennard ranks A tier with sneaky disguise plays and tracking abilities. Springtrap falls to B tier despite having multiple tools because of lower damage and more limitations. Pick Security Guard or Fighter for survivors and Mimic for killer to maximize your chances of winning.
