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 everything you need to know.

Changing Appearance in Monster Hunter Wilds (Hunter and Palico)

Monster Hunter Wilds Character Customization

Let’s dive into how you can alter your character's physical appearance in *Monster Hunter Wilds*. The game boasts a detailed character creator that lets you craft an avatar that can mirror your real-life features with impressive accuracy.

If you decide to make changes partway through your adventure, no worries! Once you've unlocked the base camp, simply head to your tent and use L1 or R1 to navigate to the Appearance Menu. Select the Change Appearance option, and you'll be back in the character creator, ready to adjust the looks of both your Hunter and Palico.

How to Change Outfits and Use Layered Armor

Monster Hunter Wilds Layered Armor

The Layered Armor feature is available from the get-go in *Monster Hunter Wilds*. To customize, visit your tent, enter the Appearance Menu, and select Equipment Appearance. This lets you tailor your Hunter’s outfit to your liking, although you're restricted to the Layered Armor items you've unlocked. Remember, you can’t transmog your equipped armor with other types you’ve forged.

There's also a Palico Equipment Appearance option, enabling you to dress up your Palico with Layered Armor items.

If the Layered Armor doesn’t suit your style, your only other option to change your outfit is by forging and equipping new armor. Keep in mind, though, that each piece of equipment has unique stats, so it's wise not to sacrifice functionality for fashion.

Seikret Customization

Lastly, the Appearance Menu includes an option for Seikret Customization. Here, you can modify your Seikret’s skin and feather color, along with various settings like patterns, decoration types, and even eye color.

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