Cookie Run: Kingdom continues to evolve with new cookies and balance changes. This tier list is compiled from multiple sources as of late August 2025, focusing on the current meta for PvE (World Exploration/Story) and PvP (Arena). Tiers are based on overall performance, utility, and popularity in high-level play. We’ve averaged rankings where possible, noting new additions like Seltzer Cookie, Doughael Cookie, Menthol Cookie, and others from recent updates.
Cookies are not strictly categorized by position (e.g., Front, Middle, Rear) here, as sources vary, but top tiers often include versatile damage dealers, tanks, and supports. Always check in-game for your setup, as meta can shift with patches.
