How to Modify Your Look in Monster Hunter Wilds

Character customization is a vital aspect of any role-playing game, and Monster Hunter Wilds truly shines in this area. If you're curious about how to tweak your character's appearance in Monster Hunter Wilds, here's a comprehensive guide to help you out.

Changing Appearance in Monster Hunter Wilds (Hunter and Palico)

Let's dive into the details of modifying your character's physical appearance in Monster Hunter Wilds. The game boasts an impressive character creator that allows you to design an avatar that closely resembles your real-life self.

If you find yourself wanting to make changes partway through the game, no worries. Once you've unlocked the base camp, head to your tent and navigate to the Appearance Menu by pressing L1 or R1. Select the "Change Appearance" option, and you'll be taken back to the character creator where you can fine-tune the looks of both your Hunter and Palico.

How to Change Outfits and Use Layered Armor

The Layered Armor feature is available right from the start of Monster Hunter Wilds. To access it, go to your tent and enter the Appearance Menu, then choose "Equipment Appearance." This allows you to customize your Hunter's outfit to your heart's content, though you're limited to the Layered Armor items you've unlocked. Keep in mind that you can't transmog your equipped armor with other types you've forged in the game.

There's also an option for "Palico Equipment Appearance," which lets you dress up your Palico with Layered Armor items.

If Layered Armor isn't your thing, the only other way to change your outfit is by forging and equipping new armor. Remember, though, that each piece of equipment has different stats, so you'll want to balance style with performance.

Seikret Customization

Lastly, don't forget about Seikret Customization, which you can also access through the Appearance Menu. This feature lets you alter the Seikret's skin and feather colors, as well as tweak settings like its pattern, decoration type, and even its eye color.

That's the rundown on how to change your outfits and appearance in Monster Hunter Wilds. For more tips and information on the game, be sure to check out The Escapist.
