FromSoftware’sElden Ringgives players a lot of freedom in its stunning open world. From creating your idealbuild, choosing theweaponsyou want to wield, and challenging the game’s powerfulbossesin whichever order you like.
One of the first big choices you have to make is your startingclassbut you may be curious to know if a class is gender locked in Elden Ring, or if you can change your character’s gender during your playthrough.
Can you change class gender in Elden Ring?
Yes, you can change your class gender in Elden Ring. Players will be able to create their in-game herobefore selecting a class, meaning that all classes can be either male or female.
Upon entering the creation screen, you will be given the option of two different body types;A and B. A is the more masculine option, while B is more feminine. For non-binary players, you can customize your character to be heavily gender-neutral using the cosmetics on offer.
You can alsochange your character’s age in-game, allowing you to become either a young warrior or a wise elder.
Importantly, even though you canchange your appearance in Elden Ringduring the game(no bad hair days here),you cannot change your character’s gender. So, unless you want to make a whole roster of characters, be sure to select the gender that you want.
