How to Alter Outfit and Look in Assassin

*Assassin’s Creed Shadows* has reintroduced the beloved open-world experience, and fans who enjoy the RPG progression system will find plenty to love. Here's a comprehensive guide on how to change your characters' clothes and appearance in *Assassin’s Creed Shadows*.

Changing Clothes and Appearance in Assassin’s Creed Shadows

In *Assassin’s Creed Shadows*, the attire of protagonists Yasuke and Naoe is determined by the gear equipped on them. To alter their clothing, navigate to the main menu, and access the gear and inventory section. From there, select the armor slot for the character whose appearance you wish to change.

You can then switch their armor to any other unlocked clothing items. The characters' appearance will instantly update to match the newly equipped gear. It's crucial to remember that each piece of gear in the game comes with its own set of stats and perks. While fashion is fun, balancing it with the functionality of your gear is essential to avoid becoming vulnerable in combat.

Unfortunately, the physical appearances of Yasuke and Naoe cannot be altered beyond the gear they wear, so customizing their look is limited to what you equip them with.

How to Get More Clothes and Outfits

In *Assassin’s Creed Shadows*, you can find gear scattered throughout the expansive world. Your best strategy is to explore and loot chests found in castles and other strongholds. Use the L2 or LT button to scan your surroundings and locate these chests.

Once you gain access to the forge and blacksmith, you'll have the opportunity to upgrade your existing gear, enhancing its strength and helping you tackle the game's challenges more effectively.
