I asked this question at the Hunted developer presentation at the Eurogame Expo yesterday, since they didn't show off any weapon or armour changes, and they confirmed that it will be a big part of the game. Apparently there are around 40 different weapons in the game, and armour changes will alter the character's appearances rather than just their stats.
Also worth noting: This game looks really impressive. Until I saw it on the big screen yesterday I had my doubts about it. It is one of the most graphically impressive games I have ever seen, with a really heavy feel to the combat (just like Gears of War had, which is a great thing), and it wasn't just dungeon-crawling on show either. There was a really impressive vista outside an old ruin, with the promise of plenty more stunning outdoor locations throughout the game.
