    If you can do it with in-game earnable currency that’s a bit different.

    Tbh I haven’t heard that that’s the case, but I also haven’t gone looking.

      They already said you could, but at least in the first one it was an end game/post game item to edit your character. You can check the news tab for the game on steam.
