character customization

Design your persona

Character customization is the process of modifying a video game avatar's appearance, abilities, or equipment to suit a player's preferences.

This feature ranges from superficial choices like hairstyles and skin tones to deeper mechanical decisions affecting gameplay, such as allocating skill points or selecting a character class.

I spent an hour in character customization before even starting the game.

The depth of character customization often serves as a selling point for role-playing games.
