Each of them has a different play style. Chris is quite aggressive and face-to-face while commanding multiple weapons. He has an attack gauge which, when full, increases his efficiency, like a faster speed.
Heisenberg brings his giant sledgehammer to the playing field and can direct lightning as well as use sharp ball-like nets to crush enemies. His Soldat jet mechanical unit plays a vital role in clearing the way for the player.
