Armour colour customisation has existed in ''CE'' since its initial release on the [[Xbox]] in [[2001]], and has remained unchanged since. It allows players to pick the colour of their entire armour set, with the exception of the undersuit and certain sections of the bracers and greaves, which will remain black regardless of colour choice. Unlike later games, no secondary or tertiary armour colours are available; the entire armour will be coated in a single colour. The set of colours available has not changed between any of the ports, remasters and rereleases of the game. | |||
