Monster Hunter World: How to Change Appearance

Like the vast majority of other RPGs, players in Monster Hunter World are given the chance to create their own character at the start of the story. While the game’s character creator might be somewhat limited, there’s enough variety there to make some truly unique avatars.

If you’re itching to change your Hunter’s looks, there is a way for you to completely redo them from scratch. However, such an opportunity isn’t always available, which is why it’s best to think things through several times over before deciding to change your appearance in Monster Hunter World. Here’s how to do it.

Updated November 12, 2024 by Marc Santos: Changing your character’s appearance in MHW has remained the same as it always has, and so has the use of Layered Armor. Still, we’ve updated this guide to expand the Layered Armor section by including more info on where to get the materials needed for Layered Armor crafting. This should give players (especially those who just finished the main story) a better idea of where to get the things they need to up their fashion game.

Monster Hunter World: How to Change Appearance

To change your character’s appearance, you’re going to need a Character Edit Voucher. You can get a free one by visiting your preferred platform’s game store (check the DLC tab for Steam users), and you can purchase additional ones later on.

Once you’ve acquired a Character Edit Voucher, boot the game, and you should see an option to edit your character’s appearance on the character selection screen. Press the appropriate button to begin the makeover process. The Character Edit Voucher lets you remake your Hunter as if you’re creating them again for the first time — this includes the ability to change their sex, face, and other physical attributes. However, the voucher will not let you edit your character’s name.

If you’re not interested in changing your character’s look, you can edit their hair and makeup by visiting your Item Box inside your room in either Astera or Seliana. Changing appearance via the Item Box is free, and you can do it as many times as you want without burning a voucher.

PC players can use mods to change their appearances for free. However, this isn’t recommended as it might corrupt your saves or possibly get your account banned for potential EULA violations.

You can change the appearance of your equipped armor sets by using the Layered Armor system, which is basically the same as transmog systems found in other games. You’ll need to craft Layered Armor at the Smithy and edit your Layered Armor settings at an Item Box to change your appearance. Equipping Layered Armor has no bearing on your Armor Skills and set effects, and you can freely wear or remove any piece as many times as you want for free.

How to Unlock Layered Armor

To get more Layered Armor options, you’ll have to progress through the game’s story, complete optional quests, and participate in event quests. As soon as you get the materials needed to make Layered Armor, they’ll automatically become available for crafting at the Smithy. The crafting requirements for Layered Armor aren’t as steep as actual armor, but some do require materials that are hard to find in regular hunts.

Layered Armor is divided into Low Rank, High Rank, and Master Rank, and the materials needed to make them can only be obtained from monsters or quests at those respective rankings. If you want to get all Master Rank Layered Armor sets, you’ll need to hunt Tempered monsters in the Guiding Lands. Some sets may be locked behind quests, so make sure to do all of them.
