Cyberpunk 2077, CD Projekt Red's upcoming open world sci-fi RPG, will deviate quite a bit from the developer's previous work in The Witcher series by tackling character customization for the first time. In the game, players will be able to create their own custom character for the protagonist, V, which will be viewable in some cutscenes, mirrors in-game, menu screens, and other reflective surfaces - this despite the game being entirely in first-person, with some not liking the decision to not allow for a third-person perspective. However, thanks to IGN, we now have a better idea of just how deep this character customization goes.

IGN's Ryan McCaffrey and Miranda Sanchez recently detailed Cyberpunk 2077's character customization following media's early hands-on time with the game last week. We have a clearer idea of how the character customization actually works, and it's deep but surprisingly not as in-depth as something like Fallout 4 or The Sims. First and foremost, customization will not have a slider to shape your face or other parts of your body. Instead, players will have a selection of presets (up to 12 or 15 options in some cases) to mix and match. These range from eyes and other facial features to body parts (including genitalia). You also start with being given a feminine or masculine body, and can change the voice accordingly afterwards.
