Fashion & Customization

Tales of Berseria offers a surprising depth of character customization, allowing you to personalize your party members' appearances beyond just their equipped gear. This section will guide you through acquiring and applying various cosmetic items, from attachments to full costumes.

Accessing the Customization Menu

To begin customizing your characters, navigate to the main menu and select the "Equipment" option. From there, choose the character you wish to customize. You will see various slots for equipment, but also dedicated slots for "Attachments" and "Costumes."

Attachments: The Finer Details

Attachments are small cosmetic items that can be placed on various parts of a character's body. They offer a great way to add personal flair without changing a character's entire outfit. Each character typically has multiple attachment slots, allowing for creative combinations.

Acquiring Attachments

  • Chests & Exploration: Many attachments are found in treasure chests scattered throughout dungeons, fields, and towns. Be thorough in your exploration! For example, the Monocle can be found in a chest in the Tranquil Woods early in the game.
  • Shop Purchases: Certain shops, particularly those in larger cities like Loegres, will sell a selection of attachments. Check back frequently as their stock may update.
  • Minigames & Side Quests: Completing specific minigames or side quests can reward you with unique attachments. For instance, achieving certain ranks in the Katz Korner minigame can unlock exclusive Katz-themed accessories.
  • Grade Shop (New Game+): Upon starting a New Game+, you can spend Grade to unlock various customization options, including some attachments, from the beginning.

Applying and Adjusting Attachments

Once you have an attachment, select the "Attachments" slot for your chosen character. You can then:

  • Equip: Select the attachment from your inventory.
  • Position: Use the directional controls to move the attachment around the character's body. Experiment with different placements!
  • Size: Adjust the size of the attachment to make it larger or smaller.
  • Rotation: Rotate the attachment along its X, Y, and Z axes for precise positioning.
  • Color: Some attachments allow for color customization. This is particularly useful for matching them to existing outfits or creating contrasting looks.

Costumes: A Complete Makeover

Costumes completely change a character's outfit, offering a dramatic transformation. These are often tied to significant game progression or specific challenges.

Acquiring Costumes

  • Story Progression: Some costumes are unlocked automatically as you advance through the main story.
  • Side Quests & Events: Certain extensive side quests or special events (like the Hot Spring event) can reward full costumes. explore all optional content!
  • Katz Boxes: These mysterious boxes, found throughout the world, often contain valuable items, including rare costumes. You'll need to find and open them all!
  • Coliseum Challenges: Conquering specific challenges in the Titania Coliseum can sometimes unlock unique costumes for your party members.
  • DLC: Tales of Berseria features various paid DLC costume packs, offering a wide array of themed outfits. These are purchased through your console's digital storefront.
  • Grade Shop (New Game+): Similar to attachments, certain costumes can be unlocked via the Grade Shop for subsequent playthroughs.

Applying Costumes

In the "Equipment" menu, select the "Costumes" slot for the desired character. Simply choose the costume you wish to apply from your inventory. Note that costumes often override the appearance of equipped armor, but attachments can still be applied on top of them.

Tips for Fashionistas

  • Mix and Match: Don't be afraid to combine different attachments and costumes. A simple attachment can drastically alter the feel of a full costume.
  • Character Specifics: Some attachments and costumes are unique to specific characters, reflecting their personalities or story arcs.
  • Preview Before Equipping: Always use the preview function in the customization menu to see how an item looks before committing to it.
  • Save Your Looks: While there isn't a dedicated "outfit save" feature, remember which combinations you like for easy re-application.
  • Explore Everywhere: The best way to find a wide variety of customization options is to thoroughly explore every nook and cranny of the world and complete all available side content.
