New Xbox Live Avatars are coming this fall and they look so much better

Finally, after all these year, we’re getting new Xbox Live Avatars.

The new Xbox Live Avatars are set to go live this fall, and the video above posted by Tom Warren on YouTube shows them off.

Back in 2015, job listings posted online by Microsoft stated the company was looking for prospective staffers to help create “higher fidelity” toons. These avatars would be “not only gorgeous, but highly performant across” wide scale of devices. In other words, the unified gaming environment of Xbox One and Windows 10.

Last year it was confirmed the new look for Avatars was in the works, along with a wheelchair option – as you can see in the video.

It sounds like we can expect the revamped avatar to arrive around the same time as Xbox One X, which launches November 7.

I’m actually going to miss my old Avatar. I think. She’s been around for so long. I’ll probably miss my lasso the most, and my pony Fred. But, it looks like we can get a unicorn, so I’m sure regular horses are included.

But the lasso. I still want a lasso.
