Customization in Astroneer allows for players to customize their looks, allowing for a personal touch to each player's character. Customization options can be unlocked in various ways, such as earning them by playing the game, during Limited Time Events, or purchasing from the EXO Outfitters in-game shop.
Players can access the Customization menu by going to the Esc menu and clicking the Star icon. In the menu, the player may change their suit, palette, visor, hat, mask, and emotes. These options are also shown at the start of every new game, allowing the player to customize their look before launching. Players can change their customization at any time.
