Witcher 3: Geralt beard grows in real-time

Razor optional.

Geralt will be able to grow a beard over the course of his Wild Hunt adventure, Witcher 3 developer CD Project has revealed.

Speaking in a recent interview,
creative director Michael Platkow-Gilewski stated that Geralt's facial hair has a variety of states that will be triggered by time and travel to different locations:

"The beard grows as time passes and when Geralt moves between locations. The beard has several "states" and these states determine its length.

"The longest is really long but it's not Gandalf-long."
