Being a Helldiver is a symbol of democracy and freedom in Helldivers 2. Customizing your Helldiver is all about the freedom to change almost everything about him or her. However, you don't really get many options to start with.
How to Become a PRO Helldiver (Helldivers 2 Tips & Tricks)
When you start playing Helldivers 2, you’ll be thrown into the game’s basic training, teaching you the ropes. This training takes about five minutes, and once it’s done, you’ll be given your very own super dreadnaught to captain. Here, you can begin customizing your character. To start the process, head to the Armory on your ship.
From here you'll be given several options to experiment with, but if you're looking to customize your character you'll want to pay particular attention to the Character and Armory tabs.
The Character tab focuses on customizing the basics of your character. You have six core options to play with however you want.
