Monster Hunter Wilds Introduces Layered Armor for Customizable Looks

The new feature allows players to change their armor's appearance without altering its stats, unlocking in the game's High Rank phase.

Layered Armor in Monster Hunter Wilds is a cosmetic feature that lets players modify the appearance of their armor without affecting its stats or skills.
Players unlock the ability to craft Layered Armor after reaching High Rank, starting in Chapter 4 of the game, and defeating the Yian Kut-Ku in the Scarlet Forest.
Layered Armor can be customized inside the Equipment Appearance menu within a player's tent, where armor visibility, pigments, and pendants can also be adjusted.
Some unique Layered Armor pieces are available exclusively through paid DLC, offering additional cosmetic options like Oni Horns and Eyepatches.
The feature streamlines the process compared to previous Monster Hunter games, removing the need for special tickets and allowing crafted High Rank armor to double as Layered Armor.
