Helldivers 2 players hungry to pick and choose which armor and abilities they wield in combat might go starving soon, as Arrowhead Studios chief executive Johan Pilestedt confirmed today the studio is “not doing transmog,” much to the community’s chagrin.

Pilestedt stated transmog was not something the devs were considering adding to Helldivers 2 in an April 12 reply on X (formerly Twitter) to a player suggesting the cosmetic feature. Pilestedt was quick to shoot down any ideas of a cosmetic armor system where you replace the look of your outfit but keep its original abilities. “Equipment looks different because it has different effects,” the CEO explained, “Swapping one for the other is like having an apple that tastes like bacon or the other way around.” The response left no room for interpretation: Helldivers 2 has absolutely zero plans to allow players to look how they want, and the studio intends to keep it that way.
