Mojang has revealed that a character creator mode is coming to Minecraft for Switch. A variety of customizable features will be available, including body shape and size, limb replacement, eye adjustments, hairstyles and colors, facial hair, and skin tone. Here’s the official statement on the update, straight from the horse’s mouth (aka Mojang):
Personalise your avatar in a number of ways, including body size and shape, limb replacement and tweaking of eyes, mouth, hairstyles and colours, facial hair and skin tones.
More than 100 items will be available for free. There will also be a range of custom accessories, created by the Minecraft team, available for purchase.
The Character Creator is currently available to beta testers, but will also roll out to Minecraft Earth, as well as all other Bedrock platforms like iOS and Nintendo Switch, once the beta has concluded.
Traditional custom skins can still be imported as before, on Windows 10 and mobile, using the following steps: Profile > Edit Character > Classic Skins tab > Owned > Import > Choose New Skin.
The character creator is still in beta testing, and will eventually roll out to Switch players. Are you looking forward to character creation in Minecraft?
