Xbox is shuttering its Avatars, but you still have time to customize yours

Remember your Xbox Avatar? Well, your ability to change them up is going away soon. Xbox quietly announced that it's shutting down the Xbox Avatar Editor early next year, and therefore, basically all Xbox Avatar functionality.

Microsoft wrote on an Xbox Support page (spotted by Pure Xbox) that it's sunsetting the app, which let you create and customize an avatar with items you could buy in the Xbox Store, on January 9, 2025, due to "low engagement" and the need to shift its priorities to other projects.

Warcraft Remastered is a trip through history that never was, and always will be
An orc and human battle in Warcraft Remastered art.

I played Warcraft II for the first time at a friend’s house, on LAN multiplayer. I didn’t know what Warcraft was; I didn’t even have much experience with the best real-time strategy games. I’d grow to love games like Age of Empires II and Starcraft, but at that point, I didn’t know what I was doing. I chose Orcs because they looked cool, had dragons (dragons were also cool), and probably lost all the games we played. I didn’t think about it again, until years later, my World of Warcraft-obsessed friends, convinced me to play that. I picked a mage because the one in the opening cinematic fighting an Infernal was, again, cool, and the rest is history.

I came to love Warcraft III after the fact because those same friends wouldn’t shut up about it. I bought a Battle Chest and everything. I still have it. And when I went back to Warcraft and Warcraft II out of curiosity, several years later, I remembered that I had seen all of this before. It was like watching a movie on TV, and then going back, years later, and watching all the sequels out of order.
