How to change character and Palico appearance in MHW
Monster Hunter Wildsoffers two ways to change your character and Palico’s appearance:
Within the first hour of yourMHWplaythrough, you’ll find a tent you can rest in, sell items, and change your appearance. You can also change your equipment’s appearance, Palico’s deployment status, and customize your loadout, among other options. Alternatively, you can change your character through the main menu if you have an appearance change voucher available.
Changing your character’s appearance through your tent
After arriving in the desert base camp, your first option is to enter your tent and cycle through the options until you reach the Appearance Menu. Here, you’ll find the following options:
The tent’s version of the appearance-changing menu lets you change aspects like hairstyle and color, eye color, and makeup, alongside some shape-changing options for your character’s face. You can also change your clothes, including their color and whether you wear underclothes. However, you can’t change your body composition, gender, or name, so this option has limitations.
The options for changing your Palico are mostly the same. You can modify its color, markings, and hair length, making just about every aspect of its appearance open to change. You can also change your and your Palico’s voice pitch if you wish, with the Palico also having access to its Felyne language.
Lastly, the Equipment Appearance menu allows you to hide certain gear parts, such as your helmet or gloves. You’ll also find the underclothes section again, which lets you quickly show or hide them and change their color if you’d like. The tent also lets you change yourprimary and secondary weaponsif you want to try something new.
