English term

skin

GBK English to French Tech/Engineering Gaming/Video-games/E-sports
Definition from Cyber Definitions:
The term skin can apply to the look and feel of a player, a game's environment, or even hardware equipment (such as consoles or control pads). Changing a SKIN means changing the aesthetic look of something; it doesn't usually affect the game play.
Example sentences:
Skins started to become a 'true' virtual currency when players became frustrated that their Steam credit balances, which had grown as they won on gambling sites, couldn't be cashed out for real money. (parentzone)
Some skins are rarer than others. So players with a rarer skin gets a certain recognition. Quite similar to branding on clothes. (videogames.org.au)
Despite being one of the most popular games of the last several years, PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds actually checks in relatively low in the world of expensive skins, having very few items eclipsing the thousand dollar mark. (SVG )

skin

Le terme 'apparence' est aussi employé par certains développeurs
Definition from L'Encyclopédie du Gamer:
Signifiant littéralement « peau », le skin se rapporte en premier lieu à l’apparence d’un personnage. Dans un RPG (ou dans tout autre type de jeu où l’on peut définir les traits de son avatar, nous ne sommes évidemment pas sectaires), on emploie ainsi ce terme pour parler du visage de base que l’on souhaite utiliser, sachant qu’il est désormais très souvent possible d’y apporter ensuite des modifications. Mais par skin, l’on entend aussi l’habillement d’un personnage et les effets visuels, de lumière, de couleur ou autres, qu’il va lui apporter. À niveau et à caractéristiques égales, certains équipements vont être beaucoup plus recherchés que d’autres selon leurs qualités esthétiques.
Example sentences:
Les développeurs ne s’y sont pas trompés et implémentent parfois la possibilité d’appliquer un skin différent à un habillement à l’apparence normalement plus standard. (L'Encyclopédie du Gamer)
