Can You Hide Helmets in Crimson Desert?

If you're looking for a transmog option or a way to hide your helmet while still enjoying its stats, you might be disappointed to know that Crimson Desert doesn't have that feature (yet). From our testing, there's no way to hide the helmet, but you can remove it quickly.

Below, we'll explain how you can use the Armor Wheel to almost seamlessly remove your helmet, allowing you to immerse yourself in a cutscene without your cool (or silly) looking helmet getting in the way of Kliff's expressions and voice.

Can You Hide Helmets in Crimson Desert?

You cannot hide your helmet in Crimson Desert.
Your only option will be to remove your helmet, which will also remove the Abyss Gears and Defense levels that you have on said helmet.
Thankfully, the Armor Wheel is a fast way to remove your helmet so you can equip and unequip it without too much hassle.

Pearl Abyss hasn't commented on whether they'll add an option to hide helmets in a future update, but with how much content Crimson Desert already has, we wouldn't rule it out as something that could happen in a future update.
