Last updated 1 month ago

Emotes overview

Avatar emotes are short, predefined animations that your avatar can perform in order to non-verbally express emotions and sentiments. Emotes are triggered by using the Emotes menu or Numbers 1 - 9 on your Keyboard


Emotes menu

The Emotes menu allows you to choose from the list of available emotes rather than typing them into Nearby chat. To access the Emotes menu, choose Socialize > Emotes from the main menu, or press Ctrl + E on your keyboard while in an experience. To dismiss the Emotes menu, click the X in the corner of the menu.

  • Full body emotes

Upper body emotes

Upper body emotes play for a short period of time when triggered while sitting. To play it again, you must trigger the emote again. Since these emotes are upper body in nature, it can be mixed with different movements on the lower half of the body. For example, the animation may be triggered while standing


Here is a list of avatar emotes that are currently available. Enter them in the and press Enter to trigger them, or choose from the above. Each avatar emote falls under one of two avatar emote types:

Note: It is possible to replace the animations played by these emotes with custom animations that you either import to Sansar or purchase from the Sansar Store. See for more information.
