How to Create a Character in Echoes of Aincrad

You're given a mirror, now what does your character look like? This article explains Character Creation in Sword Art Online: Echoes of Aincrad. It covers how to create your character, along with whether you can redo the process afterward.

Character Creation Is Available After the Beta Test Arc

You can create your character after the Closed Beta Test arc and the story shifts into the real Death Game. Focus on progressing through the Main Quest to reach that point.

No Character Creation in the Demo Version

The demo uses a pre-set, fixed avatar, so you won't be able to customize your appearance until the full game. Once you purchase it, character creation unlocks, but you won't see your finished look right away.

Your true appearance is revealed later, when the Game Master appears and forces everyone to look into a Hand Mirror.

12 Voice Options and a Wide Variety of Appearance Options

You can create your preferred appearance by combining various presets for body type, facial features, and more.

With 12 voice types to choose from, take your time to fine-tune your character until they look and sound just right.

Can You Recreate Your Character Later?

You Cannot Redo Character Creation

Your avatar is meant to represent your real-life appearance, and once you finalize it, there's no going back. Carefully go through every detail so you don't end up with regrets once you start playing!
