Wondering whether Monster Hunter Now will have layered armor? Well, here’s everything we currently know about this eagerly anticipated feature. 

Layered armor enables Monster Hunter players to get creative when it comes to building the perfect set. While crafting the most powerful gear to take down the series’ toothy terrors has always been popular, looking good while hunting is just as important. 

This is where layered armor comes in. The layered armor feature enables players to use any piece of armor, without having to worry about its skills. Instead, Hunters can just mix and match armor pieces to create some stylish looks. 

With layered armor being a popular addition in later titles, many Monster Hunter Now players will be wondering if this feature will be coming to Niantic’s mobile game. So, here’s everything we currently know about Monster Hunter Now layered armor. 

Does Monster Hunter Now have layered armor?

Monster Hunter now doesn’t have layered armor options. As of writing, Niantic has yet to reveal if this customization option will be added to the game in the future. However, it’s important to note that both Monster Hunter World and Monster Hunter Rise have featured layered armor. 

While this doesn’t necessarily mean the mobile title will receive the same treatment, it is incredibly likely. After, all Niantic has been busy converting a lot of the mainline mechanics for mobile. 

Whether layered armor would be unlocked for free or as an Item Shop purchase remains to be seen, but for now, that’s everything we know about layered armor in Monster Hunter Now. 

As always, we’ll be sure to update this article as and when Niantic releases any official information so be sure to check back regularly for updates.
