We have big dreams for the future of expression in Rec Room, whether you’re rocking a bean or full body avatar. That’s why we’re giving the bean avatar a well-deserved upgrade to match our commitment to both avatar styles!
This isn’t just about new features—though there are plenty. It’s about ensuring that both avatar forms can enjoy new features, be compatible with Avatar Studio, and improve performance across all devices, which means lower crash rates for everyone.
The upgraded bean is still in an experimental stage so we’ll be rolling it out in phases and collecting feedback to make changes on. As we go through this phase, you’ll still have the option to stick with the classic bean for a bit longer, so you can choose to explore these new changes at your own pace, and give us feedback on it here. Check out the full details and our roll-out plan by reading more here.
