Monster Hunter Wilds continues the franchise’s beloved tradition of armor customization, offering hunters a wide range of options to express their style while tackling the game’s fearsome beasts. While the game doesn’t allow players to create armor from scratch, the robust layered armor system provides extensive customization possibilities that let you emulate looks from your favorite anime, films, or other media.
The layered armor system is key to achieving your desired aesthetic without sacrificing optimal stats. Once you’ve crafted high-rank armor pieces, you can use them as layered armor—essentially visual skins that override your actual equipment’s appearance while maintaining its statistical benefits. By mixing and matching different sets, you can create unique combinations that reflect various styles.
For hunters seeking a futuristic look reminiscent of sci-fi anime warriors, the game offers numerous metallic-designed armor pieces that can be combined for a sleek, technological aesthetic. Alternatively, if you prefer a more traditional hero or ninja appearance, there are plenty of options that evoke wuxia or shinobi themes.
Beyond armor, Monster Hunter Wilds‘ character creation tools provide additional customization freedom. You can adjust your hunter’s facial features, hairstyle, and body type to resemble characters from other media. Even your faithful Palico companion can be customized with specialized layered armor and fur patterns to complement your hunter’s theme.
