Key Points
- Crimson Desert does not currently include a dedicated hide helmet toggle in its settings.
- Helmet visibility is directly tied to equipped gear rather than a cosmetic option you can switch on/off.
- The only way to remove the helmet visually is by unequipping it, which comes with gameplay trade-offs.
As important as it is to have proper gear ready for combat, some players prefer that these gears stay hidden while playing. Many games allow this feature to allow players to equip a helmet, but the visual indicators of it are off during gameplay. Is that the case with Crimson Desert, too? Read on below to find out.
How to Hide Helmet in Crimson Desert?
The short answer is – No, you cannot hide your helmet. As of the current available information on Crimson Desert, there is no direct, toggleable hide helmet option in the standard settings menu for armor. Furthermore, the helmet will remain visible even during cutscenes if you have equipped it.
Helmet visibility is tied to the specific gear equipped. That means if you want to hide the helmet, you unfortunately would have to unequip it from your Armor wheel.
If you want to unequip the helmet, follow the steps given below:
- Open your Armour wheel using the left D-pad on a controller or by pressing the T Key on PC.
- Once open, you can use the arrow keys on PC or LT or RT on the controller to toggle between helmets and also unequip them.
- You can follow the same process to unequip other Armour parts as well.
While you may unequip your helmet, do remember that doing so will make you vulnerable to attacks. And helmets have their own perks in Crimson Desert. For example, using the Visione Helmet grants you the ability to view past memories.
