Crimson Desert is packed with nearly every feature that you’d want to see in an action-adventure epic. From different combat styles and mounts to deep character progression and gear systems, there’s genuine “life-sim” potential in Pearl Abyss’s upcoming title. The game also offers character customization tools to help personalize your experience. That said, it’s important to learn how customization works as well as its limitations.
To help point you in the right direction and explain how fleshed-out customization is, we’ve put together a guide on how to change appearance in Crimson Desert.
Crimson Desert: How to Change Appearance
To change appearance in Crimson Desert, you’ll need to visit Barber Shops found all throughout the continent of Pywel. Here are all the appearance customization options available in the game:
- Hair style and color
- Beard style and color
- Eyebrow style and color
- Face tattoos and body tattoos
You’ll have many different options to pick from for all these appearance features. With that being said, there is no character creation in Crimson Desert. This means that you won’t be able to create your character’s facial and physical features from scratch. Instead, you’ll simply be adding personal touches to the three playable characters on offer.
Besides this, you can also visit a Dyehouse to tweak the color and appearance of your armor, weapons, horse, and the missile-firing mech aptly named the War Robot.
Admittedly, the appearance customization on offer isn’t as deep as RPG fans would prefer it to be. But for what it’s worth, Crimson Desert’s playable characters cover three different archetypes, come with unique personalities, and your chosen protagonist can drastically alter your overall experience. This isn’t a substitute for a proper appearance change system, but it’s certainly better than nothing.
And that wraps up our guide on how to change appearance in Crimson Desert. For an in-depth look at the game’s mechanics, abilities, map, and more, be sure to check out our Crimson Desert Wiki.
