Monster Hunter Rise: Outfit & Appearance Changes

Character customization is a cornerstone of any great RPG, and Monster Hunter Wilds truly shines in this department. If you're wondering how to tweak your hunter's look in Monster Hunter Wilds, we've got you covered.

Changing Appearance in Monster Hunter Wilds (Hunter and Palico)

Let's start with your hunter's physical appearance. Monster Hunter Wilds boasts a detailed character creator, allowing for highly personalized avatars. But don't worry if you want to make adjustments later. Once you've unlocked base camp, simply head to your tent and access the Appearance Menu (using L1 or R1). Select "Change Appearance" to revisit the character creator and adjust your hunter's and palico's looks.

How to Change Outfits and Use Layered Armor

The Layered Armor feature is available from the game's outset. Again, navigate to your tent's Appearance Menu, then choose "Equipment Appearance." This lets you customize your hunter's outfit using unlocked Layered Armor items. Remember, you're limited to the layered armor you've acquired; you can't transmog your equipped armor with other armor types. The same "Equipment Appearance" option allows you to customize your palico's look with layered armor as well.

If layered armor doesn't quite satisfy your fashion sense, the only other way to change your outfit is by crafting and equipping new armor. Just keep in mind that each armor piece has different stats, so balance fashion with functionality!

Seikret Customization

The Appearance Menu also offers Seikret Customization. Here, you can adjust your Seikret's skin and feather colors, patterns, decoration type, and even eye color.

That's how you change your appearance and outfits in Monster Hunter Wilds. For more Monster Hunter Wilds tips and tricks, check out The Escapist!
