Heroes

17 playable classes

In Darkest Dungeon, hero identity is aesthetic before it is mechanical — the Leper's self-healing isolation and the Grave Robber's repositioning are expressions of character written in stat differentials. Each class has a visual and tonal signature that shapes how it plays.

Select a class to see its abilities, combat role, boss matchups, and the party compositions it anchors.
