Gray Zone Warfare’s early access period has begun with thousands of players jumping into the latest tactical, military extraction shooter. As expected, the hardest task when setting up your soldier (aside from appearance) is coming up with a name.

Many players want to know if it’s possible to change their soldier’s name after selection, as we’ve seen this feature become the norm for many modern gaming titles in recent years. Here’s everything you need to know about whether you can actually change your character’s name in GZW.

You can’t change your name in GZW. Once you choose a character name, it’s permanently set. Unlike other titles where you can go into the gameplay settings and choose a different display name, there’s no such feature for GZW yet.

According to the official GZW FAQ from MADFINGER Games, servers are wiped every six months, while faction changes are available every three months (estimated). It seems that you can at least change your name after each wipe, but it is unclear if you can choose a new name when selecting a new faction.
