How to unlock suit color customization in Death Stranding 2
Before you can go wild with colors, you’ll need to unlock the ability to paint your porter suit. This happens after you complete the mission called “009 Deliver the Chiral Decontaminator to the Government’s Base.” You’ll get this order at the start of Episode 3, right as you begin connecting Australia to the Chiral Network. It’s a long trek—expect plenty of BT encounters along the way!
When you finally deliver the cargo to Old Oz at The Government’s Base, you’ll complete the mission. While the painting feature unlocks at this point, you’ll officially hear about it during the briefing for your next mission: “010 [Elimination] Liberate the Western Environmental Observatory from the Brigands.”
How to change your suit color
With the feature unlocked, it’s time to dive into the Customize Look menu. Here’s how you can change your suit color:
- Choose the normal porter suit (other patterns can’t be recolored, at least for now)
- Pick from the available color options
You’ll get a few colors right away. Want more? Boost your Connection Level with the Artist, a character you’ll meet later in Mexico. The more you connect, the more vibrant your wardrobe becomes!
Where to find the Customize Look menu
You have three easy ways to access suit customization in Death Stranding 2:
- During the Final Preparations screen before you start a new delivery
- At a Delivery Terminal, inside the “Fabrication and Management” section
- In your private room—just interact with your suit hanging on the wall and select “Customize Look”
So there you have it! Whether you want to be a neon beacon or just stand out from the crowd, now you know exactly how to change your suit color in Death Stranding 2. Go ahead—make Sam pop against those gloomy landscapes!
