How to Change Character Appearance in Starfield

Starfield is a perfect opportunity to create a futuristic character from a sci-fi setting, but what if you decide to change the appearance of your hero in the middle of your adventure?

Starfield Enhance!

Starfield offers a remarkably complex and detailed character creation system, empowering players to shape their protagonists as they desire. Beyond this initial creation, the game provides the ongoing freedom to alter your character’s appearance whenever desired. This guide is your roadmap to changing your character’s appearance in Starfield after you leave the character creation menu and start your journey.

How to Change Character Appearance in Starfield

When you’re ready to refresh your character’s look, head to the main settlements hubs in the Starfield universe. You can change your character’s appearance in big Cities like New Atlantis Akila and Neon in the genetic salons known as “enhance.” Keep an eye out for advertisements showcasing these services on building facades and signs scattered throughout the game world, as shown in the picture above.

Changing your protagonist’s appearance costs 500 credits.
