If you want to look your quirkiest self in the popular survival-horror title, Content Warning, you’re probably looking for the best custom faces you can use to make your first impression. Don’t worry, as we’re here with a pretty long list.
When you load into a game of Content Warning, you wake up in a house with a huge TV screen which you can use to “type” your face. Whatever you enter in that text box—upto three characters—shows up on your character’s face. While you can type almost anything that’s possible using a keyboard, the best Content Warning faces usually represent an emotion—or send a message.
While the three-character limit may seem too restrictive, you can still be plenty creative when choosing a face. So, before you take up the Old World challenge in Content Warning, let’s find you a good look, shall we?
