Learn how to change your character's appearance in Code Vein II. Find the mirrors in MagMell and access the full customization menu anytime, free of charge.
Before you can recustomize your character, you need to reach Magmell, which is just down the road from the tutorial dungeon.
You’ll start the game in the company of a woman named Lou, who will mostly just escort you around for a bit before you find yourself on MagMell Island in the past. After this, you’ll be accompanied by a character named Noah with the goal of reaching the MagMell facility along the northern edge of the island - clear the tutorial dungeon and when you’re outside you’ll find yourself on the southeastern edge of MagMell Island.
Just follow the road northwest, starting by crossing a bridge and ending when you reach a Mistle near a gate. From here just go north through said gate, work your way uphill and enter the facility - a few enemies, a bit of walking and an elevator ride are all that really separate you from MagMell, the game’s hub area.
Find a room with some mirrors on it and interact with them to return to the character customization menu.
All the amenities and services you can think of can be found in MagMell, although not everything will be unlocked during your first visit, and not everything that is unlocked has much practical use until you get more gear and resources to make it relevant. The ability to alter your toon’s appearance, however, is available right from your first visit. After riding the elevator down, head down the stairs to the northwest, go into the first door to the left (southwest), work your way southwest down a hallway and at another door turn right (northwest) and go upstairs. Turn left (southwest again) and go through a door partially covered by a banner to reach the dressing room outside of the spa. Here you’ll find some mirrors in the southern corner. They’re marked by purple lights and if you interact with any of them you’ll be taken to the character customization menu again.
There is no cost, no usage limits, cooldowns or anything, and you have unrestricted ability to alter your toon’s appearance. You can edit your voice, height, body type, skin color, clothing, accessories, makeup, hair… pretty much anything you want to tweak can be edited at a whim. You can even change your gender, but you have to select the rather obtuse “Reselect Appearance” option for that. All in all, one of the more generous recustomization options we’ve seen in a game! So don’t fret if something you crafted in character creation doesn’t survive the first few cutscenes. You’re but a jog away from altering your character throughout most of the game!
