Devil Hunter is one of the most talked-about Roblox action games inspired by Chainsaw Man, blending PvE and PvP combat, devil hunting, weapon crafting, contracts, and progression systems. In this guide, we’ll walk you through everything you need as a beginner – from starting tips to deeper mechanics that’ll help you advance confidently.
Getting Started: Choosing Your Path
When you first spawn into Devil Hunter, you must choose whether to play as a Human or a Fiend.
- Human – Higher max health, access to weapons, contracts and easier long-term progression.
- Fiend – Faster natural regen and race weapons but limited gear options.
Both are viable, but many players recommend Human for flexibility, especially for weapon and contract progression.
Starting progression is linear – you must complete the intro quests given by NPCs inside the Headquarters/Public Safety building before you can leave and continue exploration.
Early Missions and Progression
Once you’ve chosen your path and spoken to captains for initial quests:
- Complete foundational missions like Hold the Line, Residential Area, and avoid low-reward missions marked in green if you want fast XP and money.
- These missions improve your rank and unlock the ability to buy weapons and expand your actions.
These quests repeat often and are the backbone of early progression.
Weapons: Buying & Crafting

Weapons play a huge role in your effectiveness both in PvE and PvP:
Buying Weapons
Inside the Headquarters, you can buy base weapons like kitchen knives, guns, katana, axe, etc. The armory sells starter gear that you’ll want to equip early.
Crafting Weapons
As you progress, you’ll unlock crafting tables in Division rooms where you use materials gathered from missions and devil parts to make advanced weapons.
Once you choose your first weapon, it sticks until you reset your build – so pick based on your playstyle.
The Black Market: Materials & Upgrades
After you leave Headquarters, open your phone (press N) to find Black Market on the map. Talking to the Black Market NPC allows you to buy devil materials and crafting components that refresh periodically – a big shortcut if you don’t want to grind missions endlessly for materials.
Contracts and Devils

Contracts with devils are a key gameplay loop in Devil Hunter. Completing them or forging new ones grants unique rewards and abilities.
- Devils in the game include Fox, Snake, Ghost, Future, and more; each contract has specific requirements such as devil flesh or money.
- Some encounters let you choose whether to fight devils (gain loot and flesh) or make a contract directly with conditions.
A strong contract can elevate your strength significantly and unlock unique combat options during missions.
Advanced Transformation Paths
Beyond basic progression, players can pursue Fiend Talents and Hybrid transformation:
Fiend Transformation
Collect three contracts from the same type of devil, then pay a fee to become a fiend. This changes your combat style and grants unique abilities.
Hybrid Transformation
Using a Devil’s Heart and visiting the hospital surgery NPC allows you to become a hybrid with transformative combat abilities activated by pressing T. Both paths fundamentally change how you approach combat and build strategies.
Controls and Movement Basics
Understanding controls makes a huge difference:
- N – Open phone (missions, map)
- Q – Dash
- E – Equip/Sheathe weapon
- F – Block/Parry
- H – Summon skateboard (if purchased)
- T – Follow-up attacks / transform with hybrid
You can adjust keybindings in settings, which helps tailor combat to your preferences.
Tips for Faster Progress
Here are some beginner-friendly pointers:
- Skateboard early: Buying a skateboard helps with travel and mission completion speed.
- Mission selection matters: Prioritize missions with better rewards for XP and yen.
- Use the Black Market: Materials from there can save huge time investment.
- Party up: Some higher-level missions or raids are easier with friends or teammates.
Devil Hunter Roblox blends exploration, tactical combat, weapon upgrades, devil contracts, and progression paths like hybrid or fiend transformations. Mastering missions, materials, contracts, and especially combat mechanics puts you ahead in both PvE and PvP situations. With continued updates and community growth, learning these early systems will set you apart from other players.
