Okay, let’s dive in. Meta’s at it again. Geez, these Avatars just keep getting fiddled with. So, guess what? Now they’re giving us more control over stuff like face shape, body bits, hair, makeup—you name it. Seriously, though, who thought we’d be picking out virtual cheek fullness one day?
These Avatars, they’re basically everywhere on Meta. Horizon Worlds—sounds like some sci-fi gig, right? Then there’s Home, Workrooms on Quest, and it doesn’t stop at just VR stuff. Nope, they’ve spread across Facebook, Insta, WhatsApp, and Messenger too. It’s like, how many places do we need these things?
Oh, and epic news if you’re in the US or Canada: imagine picking from a bunch of new body types. Shoulders, hips, biceps—could they get more specific? Plus, there’s this new preview mode where you can tweak your look before deciding on the right outfit. Because, you know, virtual first impressions matter.
The face editor’s upping its game too. Now you can play around with jawlines and whatever “facial depth” means. And they’ve thrown in 18 standing poses, 50+ new emotes, and loads of clothes. Trying to picture a virtual runway show now.
But here’s a kicker: there’s an AI style tool. Yep, AI is picking your virtual wardrobe. You type a text, and bam, outfit ideas pop up. Kind of like a personal stylist with an unseeable face.
For now, this fancy avatar system is for those 13+ in the US and Canada. They’re rolling it out bit by bit, so who knows what’ll pop up next? Maybe socks with sandals. Actually, wouldn’t surprise me. Anyway, that’s the latest virtual scoop.
