RELATED: The Strongest Digimon In Digimon Story: Cyber Sleuth - Hacker’s Memory
At King Drasil’s behest, the 13 Royal Knights track down and destroy threats to the world, however, most of the time they act individually. The only times they come together to face conflicts are when there is a devastating calamity on the horizon where their great powers need to be combined to stop it.
Updated on November 28, 2021, by Reyadh Rahaman:Those who are familiar with Digimon Story: Cyber Sleuth - Hacker’s Memoryare likely familiar with the Royal Knights, as they are important t that game’s story. Players can even acquire Royal Knights as Digimon partners. They, however, are Ultra-level Digimon and take quite a lot of work to obtain as allies.

Be sure to put together a moveset that will take advantage of a Royal Knight’s highest offensive stat to best use them in battle.
13 Alphamon
Classification Data
Title: Aloof Hermit Level: Mega Type: Warrior Attribute: Vaccine Families: Virus Busters & Dragon’s Roar Prior Forms: Grademon or DoruGreymon
This black and gold warrior Digimon is one of the most mysterious of the Royal Knights and is not often heard from unless there are severe actions that need to be unleashed upon evil-doers. They possess the incredibly powerful ability to condense time so that in battle they can unleash untold numbers of attacks in an instant to vanquish foes. From the perspective of another, it would appear that Alphamon only uses a single strike to end their opponent.

12 Craniamon
Classification Data
Title: None Level: Mega Type: Warrior Attribute: Vaccine Families: Virus Busters & Metal Empire Prior Form: HiAndromon
Out of all of the Royal Knights, Craniamon is arguably the most obsessed with their title and desires to serve King Drasil as faithfully and successfully as possible. They take great pleasure in dueling with adversaries in one-on-one scenarios, which gives them the opportunity to use their mighty dual-blade spear and stalwart shield. They can attack at supersonic speeds, though, their defense is also impressive and is nearly impenetrable.

11 Crusadermon
Classification Data
Title: Indifferent Warrior Level: Mega Type: Warrior Attribute: Virus Families: Virus Busters & Metal Empire Prior Form: Knightmon
Vibrant to behold, Crusadermon is actually a stranger fit for the Royal Knights than one would first assume. They serve King Drasil, like the other knights, however, they are far more focused on their own sense of justice than serving the digital world. They will do as they please and the ends always justify the means to them. Crusadermon primarily uses its arm-mounted laser cannon in combat to blast foes with powerful energy attacks at close and long-range.

RELATED: Digimon: Every Digimon World Game, Ranked
The most loyal to King Drasil out of all the Royal Knights, Dynasmon will never betray their lord, regardless of circumstances.

Classification Data
Title: Dragon Emperor Level: Mega Type: Warrior Attribute: Data Families: Dragon’s Roar & Virus Busters Prior Forms: Slayerdramon + Breakdramon (Fusion required)
Examon is the greatest in physical stature out of all the Royal Knights, dwarfing the others by a huge margin. In fact, its form is composed of so much data that most digital tools cannot even fully render its appearance. It can use its massive wings to fly or as a shield, for they are made of the immensely strong metal known as chrome digizoid. When attacking, their lance can be used to devastate the opposition with explosive shots, laser beams, or just straight-up impale them.

Classification Data
Title: Crimson Knight Level: Mega Type: Warrior Attribute: Virus Families: Virus Busters, Wind Guardians, Metal Empire, & Dragon’s Roar Prior Forms: WarGrowlmon or Guilmon + Bearmon (Fusion required)
A being of contradictory nature, Gallantmon is one of the few Royal Knights who are of the Virus attribute. While they are most often a force for righteousness, they also have the potential to stray from their moral path and become a dangerous enemy to the digital world. Like many of the other Royal Knights, they possess resilient armor, a strong shield, and a formidable weapon. The lance made from their right arm can be used to deliver piercing jousts that can penetrate almost any defense.

7 Gankoomon
Classification Data
Title: None Level: Mega Type: Warrior Attribute: Data Family: Virus Busters Prior Form: SkullMeramon
This Royal Knight Digimon is one who travels the digital world much more than the other knights and rarely waits for orders from King Drasil before acting to stop evil-doers. They actively seek out threats and deal with them immediately, making it clear that they take their role as a guardian of the digital world seriously. Gankoomon also trained Hackmon to the point where they could digivolve into Jesmon before they also became a member of the Royal Knights. Gankoomon specializes in hand-to-hand combat with which it uses to pulverize enemies into digital dust.

RELATED: Games You Can Play While You Wait For Digimon Survive
Trained under severe conditions by Gankoomon, Jesmon is the most disciplined out of all the Royal Knights, and this has led them to become a formidable force in combat. Their senses are so keen that they can detect threats to the digital world faster than any of the other knights and often go charging towards trouble. Unlike most of their kin, Jesmon often works with others to deal with problems and does not possess an air of overconfidence despite being very powerful. Using their many blades, they can slash foes to ribbons with terrifying efficiency.

Classification Data
Title: Swift Crimson Horse Level: Mega Type: Warrior Attribute: Vaccine Family: Virus Busters Prior Form: Chirinmon
This bestial Digimon in red digizoid armor looks quite different from most other Royal Knights due to their inhuman appearance, however, their morals and actions are always aligned with the forces of good. Kentaurosmon possesses arguably the highest mobility out of all the Royal Knights and can skewer enemies from afar with their crossbow that is capable of launching bolts made of light.

Known to the other Royal Knights as the most brilliant strategist, Leopardmon often is seen in the role of tactician and leader in many conflicts. In the few instances where the Royal Knights need to assemble to take down a threat, this brown-armored mega Digimon is the one the others look to for a plan of action. In combat, they use their lithe sword to carve enemies into pieces.
