Outfit

Many Operators in Arknights have various outfits that changes their appearance to a unique feel and look with various themes depending on the Operator and the outfit in question. They are designed/produced by various Terran fashion brands and franchises, and tend to be designer clothes than practical battledresses such as those from the Pioneer and Striker brands, although some outfits blend elements from both, notably those from the Bloodline of Combat brand.

Some outfits also give special effects during gameplay including changing the appearance of summons tied to the respective Operator, but these are purely cosmetic and do not affect the Operator's performance in any way.

Most outfits are available in the Outfit Store, bought with Originite Prime or acquired by using Outfit Voucher (although certain limitations apply for this), and some are awarded from various events. It is highly recommended for players to save up their Originite Primes whenever possible to buy outfits for their favorite Operators to make the most of them.

Unique

Certain outfits also have unique features that makes them much more valuable and provide greater aesthetics.

Dynamic art

These outfits have a dynamic (animated) artwork, popularly (yet incorrectly) known as Live2D, which is played when the outfit is displayed in the Store, main menu, and Operator information screen. Since this may strain the performance of certain devices, the player can have dynamic art outfits only animated on the main menu or turn their animations off altogether (thus only the static artwork that will be displayed as usual) in Options.

Special

These outfits, in addition to having dynamic art (see above), also has a special animated scene played when the outfit is obtained (and the player added the respective Operator to their roster after obtaining it if not already) and changes the respective Operator's dialogues to new ones reflecting the outfit's theme when worn.

Trivia

• With five outfits as of December 23, 2024, Amiya has the most outfits of all Operators. This distinction remains true even though Among the Luminaries being exclusive to the CN server, which reduces the count to four in the Global and TW servers.
  • Amiya is also the only 5★ Operator with a dynamic art outfit.
• Astesia, Exusiai, Goldenglow, Jessica, SilverAsh, and Suzuran shares the distinction of having three outfits, below Amiya.
  • Out of Suzuran's three outfits, two of them coincide with collaboration events (Spring Praise with It's Been A While; Yukibare with A Flurry to the Flame).
  • SilverAsh is the only male Operator with three outfits, with his Never-melting Ice also being the first Ambience Synesthesia outfit with dynamic art.
• Out of 6★ Operators introduced with the release of Arknights, Eyjafjalla is the one with the longest period of time without outfit, at two years, and the last one to receive an outfit. This becomes a meme in the Global community of Arknights which extends to other 6★ Operators who did not yet receive an outfit.
  • After Eyjafjalla, Saga becomes the Operator with the longest time without an outfit, which became a meme in CN community and even caused a small protest in A Flurry to the Flame. Saga does receive There They Be in Hortus de Escapismo along with Fartooth (Hear the Wind Sing) who has no outfits since her release in the Pinus Sylvestris event.
• Welfare Operators often receive their outfits at their event reruns. There are also some reruns which does not include new outfits such as Dossoles Holiday and in certain cases such as Stultifera Navis where Skadi received the outfit meant for Lumen, who received his outfit as part of Ambience Synesthesia 2023 already.
