FULL STORY
======================================================================

Arrowhead Game Studios has confirmed that Helldivers 2 won't ever get a 
transmog feature. 

Despite the myriad of updates the third-person online shooter has been 
receiving lately, there's one in particular that players have been hoping for 
since the game's launch in February: a transmogrify system. 

With Helldivers 2 , users can obtain all sorts of unique armor sets, helmets, 
and capes to customize their personal Helldiver with, however, they're not 
able to equip gear solely based on its aesthetic without first worrying about 
stats and passives. This is where a transgmog feature would come in handy, a 
system that would allow players to customize the appearance of their loadout 
to their heart's content - similar to World of Warcraft or Destiny 2 - and 
stand out on the battlefield. 

Unfortunately, this isn't something Arrowhead is looking to implement in the 
future in the game. As reported by IGN , Arrowhead CEO Johan Pilestedt 
recently responded to a user on X (formerly Twitter and explained that it 
isn't ever going to happen. 

"We are not doing transmog," Pilestedt said. "It doesn't make sense - 
equipment looks different because it has different effects. Swapping one for 
the other is like having an apple that tastes like bacon or the other way 
around." 

Although transmogs aren't a possibility, Arrowhead has confirmed that 
Helldivers 2 will receive free post-launch story updates . Although the 
details are sparse right now, the studio explained that that there's more to 
come in the shooter as it expands the game's content, and confirmed that 
players will be able to witness more story events unfold through its "planned 
free updates."
