Monster Hunter Wilds: Gender-Locked Armor is a Thing of the Past

Fashion Hunting Enters a New Era

Monster Hunter Wilds Armor Sets Will No Longer Be Gender ExclusiveFor years, Monster Hunter players have longed for the freedom to wear any armor, regardless of their character's gender. That dream is now a reality! Capcom's Gamescom Monster Hunter Wilds Developer Stream confirmed the removal of gender-locked armor sets.

A Capcom developer, showcasing starting armors, stated, "In previous Monster Hunter games, male and female armor was separate. I'm pleased to announce that in Monster Hunter Wilds, that's no longer the case. All characters can wear any gear."

The announcement sparked widespread celebration, particularly among "fashion hunters" who prioritize aesthetics. Previously, gender restrictions limited access to desired armor pieces. Imagine wanting a Rathian skirt as a male hunter, or the Daimyo Hermitaur set as a female hunter—only to find these options unavailable. This limitation, coupled with often contrasting aesthetic styles (bulky male armor vs. revealing female armor), proved frustrating.

Monster Hunter: World's gender change system, requiring paid vouchers after the initial free change, further highlighted the issue. Players wanting specific armor sets were forced to pay extra just to achieve their desired look.

While unconfirmed, the likely inclusion of a "layered armor" system in Wilds suggests players can mix and match appearances without sacrificing stats. This, combined with the elimination of gendered armor, unlocks unprecedented possibilities for self-expression.
