Changing Appearance in Monster Hunter Wilds (Hunter and Palico)

In Monster Hunter Wilds, the character creator offers an incredibly detailed experience, allowing you to craft an avatar that closely mirrors your real-life appearance. Should you wish to make changes as you progress through the game, it's quite simple. After unlocking the base camp, head to your tent and navigate to the Appearance Menu by pressing L1 or R1. From there, select the Change Appearance option to revisit the character creator and adjust the looks of both your Hunter and Palico.

How to Change Outfits and Use Layered Armor

The Layered Armor feature, available right from the start of Monster Hunter Wilds, adds another layer of customization. To access it, return to your tent, enter the Appearance Menu, and choose Equipment Appearance. This allows you to customize your Hunter’s outfit to your liking, though you're restricted to the Layered Armor items you've unlocked. Note that you can't transmog your equipped armor with other armor types you've forged.

Additionally, there's an option for Palico Equipment Appearance, enabling you to use Layered Armor items to style your Palico.

If the Layered Armor options don't meet your style preferences, the alternative is to forge and equip new armor. Keep in mind that each piece of equipment offers different stats, so balancing fashion with functionality is crucial.

Seikret Customization

For those interested in Seikret Customization, you can find this option within the Appearance Menu as well. Here, you can alter the Seikret's skin and feather color, adjust its pattern, choose decoration types, and even change its eye color.

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