Characters

Characters or sometimes referred as suits, is the avatar that is used by player as they explore and play through the game. At the start of each game the player can choose from the default suits, palettes, and visors on the EXO Dynamics space station. Once chosen, the character will blast down in a Shelter. Each suit is vastly different in appearance, but no special abilities are present in different suits, making the suits an entirely cosmetic option. Your cosmetic choices can be changed at any time in-game from the menu. More suits, palettes, and visors are unlockable through in-game actions.
