New Xbox Live Avatars are coming this fall
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.
Dubbed Avatar 2.0, the new personas were built with Unity, and the new items such as prosthetics, wheelchairs, vehicles, and props will also interact with the environment.
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.

These graphics are next level! This can look like a movie if there was no story to what it really was. Cool things are coming from Xbox!

They look really nice, but personally I didn't have any problems with the avatars already set in place as they don't really feel like they matter all too much.

They're looking great, ALOT more detail and people will be happy to see they're providing avatar's for gamers in wheelchair's or loss of arm/leg etc. Great job!

But it won't be the same IMO, they've been the same type for yrs! :(
I think these are much better.
