with great character creation suites to play in 2022"},"content":{"rendered":"<p>One of the joys of playing an MMO or RPG is having the ability to create your own character \u2013 deciding how they\u2019ll look, what traits or abilities they\u2019ll get, and determining their class to suit your personality.<\/p>\n<p>Some games feature character creators that keep it simple with things like presets, while others have surprisingly detailed creators that allow players to customise almost anything.<\/p>\n<p>We\u2019ve selected a few notable titles that have some of the best character creation suites to check out in 2022, and these games are detailed below.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"my-4\">The Sims 4<\/h3>\n<p><strong>Release date:<\/strong> 2 September 2014<\/p>\n<p><strong>Platforms:<\/strong> PS4, Xbox One, and PC<\/p>\n<p>Our first pick should come as no surprise considering The Sims series is primarily based around customization \u2013 allowing players to truly express themselves in all aspects of their Sim\u2019s life.<\/p>\n<p>The Create-A-Sim tool featured in The Sims 4 is the best version to date, as it allows players to sculpt faces, change body proportions, and choose multiple pieces of clothing to fit a specific style that can be worn on different days.<\/p>\n<p>The game even allows you to determine your Sim\u2019s emotional spectrum, ambitions, and overall personality before heading out into the world.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"YouTube video player\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/usMZD0TYOpM\"

2020<\/p>\n<p><strong>Platforms:<\/strong> PS5, PS4, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, and PC<\/p>\n<p>While upon its launch, there were many things not to like about Cyberpunk 2077, its character creation tool is not one of them.<\/p>\n<p>The game offers players a wide variety of detailed options that allow you to customize almost every aspect of your character \u2013 including the more private areas.<\/p>\n<p>Additionally, Cyberpunk 2077 provides a tailored gameplay experience as you get to assign core competencies and attribute points to your character and decide what their\u00a0backstory will be.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"YouTube video player\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/NUGoiVGaMsI\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" frameborder=\"0\"
