Does Sons of the Forest have character creation?

Does Sons of the Forest have character creation? It's a fair question since its predecessor - The Forest - had no character creation options and minimal character customisation. As a first-person game, you can't see your character's face anyway, but what about if you're playing multiplayer? And what if you want to play as a female presenting character? These are options players have been asking for in The Forest 2.

Most new survival games begin with a character creation screen, allowing you to tweak your character's look to your liking - whether that's to look like you or something more fitting who you wish you were. In a time of increased diversity and inclusion, it's always a surprise when games don't offer this option, or at least a choice of protagonist. Since there are no custom characters in The Forest's single-player mode, and only random pre-made characters assigned to each person in its multiplayer mode, you are probably wondering if Sons of the Forest character creation is available in the sequel.
