Path of Exile 2: How to Equip Cosmetics

As part of its monetization scheme, Path of Exile 2 allows you to purchase and equip a variety of cosmetics.

There are many types of cosmetics, including things like helmets, weapons, pets, and many more. Every one of these cosmetics essentially overrides the look of your equipped gear. It lets you set up your favorite look regardless of your equipment’s stats. Plus, it helps you stand out!

In this guide, we’ll tell you how to get and equip cosmetics in Path of Exile 2.

How to Equip Cosmetics | Path of Exile 2

You can equip or change your cosmetics in Path of Exile by simply opening the Cosmetics Menu. On PC, you can open it by selecting it from the quick menu on the bottom left side of the screen or by pressing the K key.

If you’re playing with a controller or on consoles, you’ll need to bring up the Radial Menu instead. Simply hold down whatever the equivalent to Select is on your controller, such as the View Button (Xbox) or the Touchpad (PlayStation DualSense). Then use either joystick to select Cosmetics on the top right corner of the Radial Menu.

You can then select any of the Cosmetics you wish to use under the Cosmetics category. This includes any Cosmetics you own from Path of Exile 1, though most of them are still unavailable as of this writing. We expect them to be ported over as the Early Access period progresses, though.

If you don’t have any Cosmetics, you’ll need to purchase them as microtransactions. You can find them under the Featured, Packs, Sales, and Shop categories of the Cosmetics Menu. Whether they’re worth purchasing is up to you, of course!

So there you have it, that’s everything you need to know to equip any of your fancy cosmetics in Path of Exile 2. Make sure to put on your most unique look before you play co-op multiplayer! Gotta stand out from your allies, right?
