Unlocks & Ranks 42
Six survivors have a dedicated unlock achievement — SWAT, Tank and Engineer do not, because you start with them. Every survivor then has four rank achievements, for ranks two through five. Rank 5 is new in 1.0. The studio has not published the Survival Level each rank needs, so those thresholds are not listed here.
