How to Change a Skin in Bedrock Edition

Customizing your character in the Bedrock Edition of Minecraft can be a lot of fun, as there are hundreds of skins to create and buy in the marketplace. Overlooking these customizations results in the default skin, which is not appealing to most players. This leads people to change the appearance of their character to whatever they find interesting. There are many options in the marketplace, from anime to Disney characters with unique features. These skins can also be used to easily locate players in the game, as they are different from the default characters. Fortunately, the creators of

Minecraft made the design process easy with just a few clicks.

In this Holy Hosting guide, we will detail how to change your Bedrock Edition skin to play however you want.

How to Change Skins in Bedrock

The process for changing your character's skin is almost the same for Windows, PlayStation, Nintendo Switch, Xbox, and Pocket Edition. There are two different types of skins, custom and classic. The first is where players can manually create their character through a variety of options. The other option is predefined skins from Mojang or the marketplace. The process for both methods may differ slightly from one console to another. For example, Windows 10 and PlayStation 4 would have different user interfaces for changing skins, but they are still similar. This may also apply to importing custom skins to your character, as the process varies or is incompatible on certain platforms. Regardless of which version you play on, follow the instructions below to get started with classic or custom skins.

Classic Skin

Open Minecraft from your platform and head to the main menu.

In the bottom right corner, select the Dressing Room or the Profile option.

Hover over an empty skin and press Create Character.

Then, select the Classic Skin option and press Create Classic Skin.

From here, you can start scrolling through the list of skins to find the one you want.

(Optional): On Windows, instead of choosing one from the game, upload a skin by selecting the Choose New Skin option in the bottom right corner.

Note: If you cannot find what you want, try browsing the Marketplace for more options.

When you find the desired skin, click the Equip option.

Press back in the upper left corner or on your gamepad to save the changes.

Character Creator

Open Minecraft on your platform, then head to the main menu.

Select the Dressing Room or the Profile option near the bottom right corner.

Choose an empty character and press Create Character.

Click on the Character option and continue to the Create Character button.

From here, you can start applying special customizations to the skin from a variety of categories.

Once you are done, simply press the back button near the upper left corner or on your gamepad.

Conclusion

Fully customizing your character's skin allows for unique details and account personalization. These skins can be used for themed worlds with texture packs, as an alternative use. However, if you want truly interesting characters, then the marketplace would be the place to get them. It costs money to get them, but it is possible to get custom skins on Bedrock. It depends on the platform you use to play Minecraft, so keep that in mind as you experiment with different characters. We hope this guide has helped you create the perfect skin for your account!
