Are Elden Ring classes gender locked? How to change character gender
FromSoftware, DexertoElden Ring features multiple classes to use but are they gender locked or can you decide between a male or female when selecting your desired class?
FromSoftware’s Elden Ring gives players a lot of freedom in its stunning open world. From creating your ideal build, choosing the weapons you want to wield, and challenging the game’s powerful bosses in whichever order you like.
One of the first big choices you have to make is your starting class but 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 hero before 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 also change your character’s age in-game, allowing you to become either a young warrior or a wise elder.
Importantly, even though you can change your appearance in Elden Ring during 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.
