Kingdom Rush 6 Genesis TD Genesis TD Hero Roster
Twelve portraits on the wooden panel. Confirmed names first, rumors last.
The Heroes panel in Kingdom Rush 6: Genesis TD is the honest roster. Two equipped slots, twelve portraits, a lore box, Equip, Upgrade. Steam’s store page agrees: 12 epic heroes, two per stage. This page lists what Ironhide has actually shown. It does not complete the grid with fan fiction.
Confirmed and heavily shown
Gerald Lightseeker — paladin Anchor, Sword of Elynie, Devlog #2. Page: Gerald Lightseeker.
Zefira — Academy battlemage Rover, Devlog #3. Page: Zefira.
Malik — hammer, “return of the fury,” Devlog #5. Second Anchor or breaker.
Ignus — flame prodigy, Devlog #25. Magic Rover before he was a walking elemental in later timeline games.
Drakkan — Arcane Dragon, Devlog #13. Flying Rover for disconnected paths.
Ashbite — dragon family, visible in the portrait strip. Flying/fire job.
Oni — Devlog #27. Katanas, Pit of Fire, Moloch. Full page: Oni.
Bolin Farslayer — named in public roster roundups as a Genesis hero. Physical poke, artillery-shaped.
Public wikis also list Connor, Rhodes, and Gemina among the twelve. Those names match the idea of a mixed Linirean vanguard (melee, support, mage). This wiki will promote them to full pages when kits are on screen, not before.
How to read the panel
The screenshot on this wiki shows Gerald selected at level 10, two equipped (Gerald plus a fire-shaped partner), and a row of portraits including Zefira’s white hair, a red-bearded bruiser, a compact fighter, a purple caster, Ignus-like flame, a lion-gold face, and dragon heads. That is a twelve-person army, not a mystery box. Click, read the blurb, Equip.
Lore blurbs are short on purpose. Gerald’s current text already tells you the campaign MacGuffin (Tear of Elynie) without a cutscene. Expect similar two-sentence bios for the rest.
Unlock differences
Community Q&A around the demo said Steam includes the heroes, towers, and spells in the premium purchase, while mobile may charge extra to unlock the full set. Treat that as a wallet warning, not as a gameplay fork. The tier list ranks kits assuming you have the unit. If a mobile IAP gates a dragon, the job still exists — you just play Gerald/Zefira until you pay or grind whatever Ironhide ships.
There are no Roblox-style codes that dump the roster into your account. Pre-order and wishlist milestones are the reward language Ironhide has used.
Pairing without a full bio
You do not need a novel to pair:
- Need a door? Gerald or Malik.
- Need a leak-catcher? Zefira or Ignus.
- Need terrain ignore? Drakkan or Ashbite.
- Need long-range physical? Bolin.
- Need chaos? Oni, after you can afford chaos.
That is the same job list as the two-hero system. Modes change legality, not the jobs: Iron locks the pair, Classic allows only one hero, Spells Rush bans the pair.
What this page will not do
- Invent a 13th hero.
- Publish fake skill names for unrevealed kits.
- Claim a mobile-only secret unit.
- Tell you to stack two flyers on Citadel because the art is cool.
When 24 September 2026 lands, this roster becomes a checklist: twelve clickable, two equipped, stars spent on trees, campaign node selected. Until then, master Gerald and Zefira so the rest of the panel has a standard to beat.
