I'm bored... so... Niko is Male or Female?

[Невс]

I see everyone saying two diferent things, but I will assume that Niko is what you want.
*for me is a boy*

[시호]

Female

[Hirridok]

im just gonna say both

[juckport]

it's up to you to decide whether Niko's a boy or a girl

[Wubwub]

Yup its a girl

[radiocarbon]

It's purposely left ambiguous.

It's up to the player, but it so obviously looks like a girl

How?? Niko looks 100% androgynous to me.

Niko perfectly matches what I imagine for a little girl. The eyes, hat, and literally everything about the sprite don't go both ways for me, even the dialogue somehow.

Everyone was intended to see Niko in their own way, so it makes sense that we all see something different.

I like to think of each person's game as it's own seperate universe.

To me, the Niko in my game's universe was male. I couldn't imagine him as anything other than a boy.

In your game, if your Niko was female, male, or genderless, then that's no more or less correct than how I interpreted "my" Niko.

Everyone is meant to see Niko differently. Allowing the player to see what they want to see is a part of what makes Niko so endearing and easy to grow attached to.

Boy or girl what ever u want that's what's cool about him

[Snippy]

Niko will always be a girl in my heart !

Whether you think Niko is a boy or a girl, you're right.

the dev or I forgot whom, on their tumblr answered saying they wanted a gender neutral character and what you think Niko is, is your choice.

Well, one of the devs answered here. And that is above your comment.
