There is a body morphing feature, but sadly it's only in 1 of the challenges and story mode chapter 4. But, if you die, you will be able to control the robot that killed you.
Yeah, that's exactly why I was disappointed with the lack of upgrades to change your body, cause that challenge shows that they already have the assets needed to do it.
honestly dont know how people like the PvE in this. only play this game for the last bot. even the insanium tier is too easy for player at my skill level so the only fun/challenging enough game mode is last bot.
