The game opens with a character creator, allowing you to set V’s skin tone, hairstyles, eye colour, scars and more. However, if you’re paralysed with choice like us, it might be worth knowing how important your appearance in Cyberpunk 2077 - especially as it’s a first-person game - and the good news is, following a post-release update, it’s possible to change your appearance later in the game. On this page: This wasn’t the case at launch. Despite a number of Ripperdocs to visit and ways to install new implants, when it came to V’s external appearance, those were off limits. From there, to change your appearance in Cyberpunk 2077, visit your apartment and inspect the mirror in the bathroom. If Johnny appears in the mirror, then inspect the mirror again until V appears. Johnny’s appearance isn’t a bug, by the way - this is intentional! Once you investigate the mirror properly, you can edit your character’s appearance. Note that if you are resuming a save after the update 1.5, know there a number of new character customisation options - including new selections of lip and eye makeup to chose from. Finally, know that all apartment locations will allow you to change your appearance. The 1.5 update patch notes are here! New additions include how to change your appearance in Cyberpunk 2077 and Cyberpunk 2077 apartment locations. Elsewhere, we have explains on Cyberpunk 2077 life paths, money making, XP levelling, best Cyberpunk 2077 armour and clothing, best Cyberpunk 2077 weapons, romance options, Cyberpunk 2077 endings and how long to beat Cyberpunk 2077.
On your inventory screen When looking at a mirror; this is an option in your apartment and other locations, as well as in key cutscenes such as the end of the life path-specific prologue Riding vehicles when viewing in third-person In Photo Mode
It’s the inventory screen you’ll see V the most frequently - though that said, chances are they will be dressed in all kinds of random gear, including hats and gas masks, if you’re like us and prioritise stats over anything else - this is an RPG after all. (Speaking of clothing - you can unlock a few Witcher-themed items with Cyberpunk GOG rewards, regardless of your platform.)
