Littler, 18, however, has ditched his iconic shirt that he has worn since last year.
The teenager has kept his traditional purple and yellow but with a new design.
The new shirt features yellow paint strokes on the sleeves with a main purple body.
However, the nuclear logos have been removed from the body, as has the yellow panelling under the sleeve.
And fans were left split with the Warrington thrower’s new kit as they took to social media.
One posted: “Definitely prefer the last one.”
A second wrote: “I don’t see the difference.”
A third commented: “I can’t decide if it’s class or grim.”
A fourth said: “More yellow looks really nice.”
Another added: “I actually really like that.”
Littler gave the shirt the perfect debut as he secured a crushing 10-2 win over Searle.
The teenage prodigy has risen to become one of the best at the oche since his emergence at the 2024 PDC World Championship.
He has already won multiple titles and will be hoping to add to them at the World Matchplay Darts.
Peter Wright also rocked a new look, but enjoyed a less successful time in Blackpool than Littler as he was knocked out in the first round.
