Tap or click on the Avatars button, and from there Facebook will walk you through the process of making your very own Facebook Avatar. When players are done making their Facebook Avatar, they will be able to share it on their profile by making it their profile picture. You can also send the Avatar through Facebook messenger and use it as a sticker! However, some Facebook users may not be seeing the Avatar menu. If this is you, it is probably because you have not updated to the latest version of Facebook. Make sure you download the latest version of the Facebook app and try again. The process of creating Avatars has always been extremely popular, and only more so with social media defining us in some ways.

It will be interesting to see if any other platforms, or even gaming consoles, adopt Avatars. Similarly, it will also be interesting to see if Facebook Gaming will be incorporating their new avatars in the future.
