With the many varieties of outfit styles and functions, players will likely find themselves swapping between them with each gameplay scenario. For players who enjoy immersing themselves in a game, Aloy changing her entire outfit five seconds before a fight may be a little distracting.

Moreover, players who enjoy one particular outfit may be reluctant to swap it out for something less visually impressive. As such, with Horizon Forbidden West’s 1.016 update, Guerrilla Games has added a way for players to swap outfits without changing Aloy’s appearance with the addition of a Transmog system.
How to Transmog in Horizon Forbidden West
Before players can transmog their gear and take Aloy to New Game Plus, they need to ensure Horizon Forbidden West is fully updated.
To check this, hover over the game’s icon in the “Home” menu and press the “Options” button. Scroll down to “Check for Update” and verify that the game is patched. The console needs to be connected to the internet for this to work.
After updating the game, load up a save and enter the Map menu by pressing the touchpad. Use the left bumper to navigate to the Inventory tab and scroll down to the Outfits page.
With any piece of gear equipped, hover over another outfit and press the Triangle button to “Apply Look.” A small icon will appear in the bottom right of the screen reading “Look Applied,” and now, players should be free to roam the Forbidden West with any outfit they choose.
To remove the applied look, simply re-enter the menu and click Triangle again. This new update adds a variety of new features regarding the upgrading of armor in New Game Plus, so be sure to check Game Rant’s other guides on Champion Tokens and the new Legendary Gear.
Horizon Forbidden West is currently available for PS4 and PS5.
