Playable characters in Redfall

One of the first things you are going to do when playing Redfall is choosing one of the playable heroes. They all have their own unique abilities that determine their playstyle. However, choosing which character to play depends on your personal preference. For example; what is your playstyle or what abilities do you like to use?
You can activate multiple abilities alongside each other and each of them can be upgraded in the character’s skill tree. There you can enhance their effectiveness or extend their duration but also augment them with new features.
Each character has three main abilities. Two of them have a cooldown which you can use all the time but the final ultimate skill needs to be charged. You can do this by collecting Psychic Residue.
