Archetypes are more flexible than traditional MMORPG classes, being designed for the game's modern ranged-weapon combat system. Each archetype will have three specialization trees which will define a particular play style over time, although players will be able to mix and match skills from these. Players test their abilities as they begin to develop their character.

Current archetypes are Archaeologist, Asgard, Goa'uld, Jaffa, Scientist, Soldier, and Commando. Scientist and archaeologist archetypes will excel in non-combat gameplay with various types of puzzles to solve that will allow access to new advances.
