In 2018, Microsoft launched Xbox Avatar Editor. However, the application did not arouse much interest among people, so it will be closed.

Here's What We Know

Xbox Avatar Editor will be discontinued on 9 January 2025. Users will no longer be able to access Xbox avatars or any avatar items they have purchased.

Xbox will refund all avatar purchases made between 1 November 2023 and 9 January 2025.

Xbox is discontinuing support due to low interest and a shift in focus towards providing a different gaming experience, noting that players can still personalise their experience with dynamic backgrounds, profile colours and other options.
