 Hey, it's Addie here with The Verge at Oculus Connect, and this is my Oculus Avatar. As you might imagine, avatars are your persistent identity in the Oculus Rift and later the Gear VR. And what they are is basically a customizable person that's going to represent you in any game that or experience that enables it. And the way that you create this is just by putting on the Rift and looking into what seems like a virtual mirror. And you pick a bunch of things from around you, and you can either throw them onto your mirror, or you can put them on yourself. And what's interesting is how classy all of it is. There are a lot of systems that will give you these sort of cartoon avatars, and everything here is completely monochrome, sort of stylized and realistic, and they just want you to look like you're at a really nice cocktail party. Avatars is going to be launching on the Oculus Rift when Oculus Touch comes out on December 6th, and it'll be coming to Gear VR in 2017.
