Snapchat is bringing its 2D Bitmoji user avatars back for paying subscribers. Over the coming days, users with a Snapchat Plus subscription (which starts at $2.25 per month for the annual plan) can enable a new “Comic Bitmoji” option that renders 3D avatars in a cartoon-style 2D.
“Think of it like a filter for your avatar: the same customization and expressions you love, reimagined to be reminiscent of that iconic comic-inspired look,” Snapchat said in the blog announcement. The Comic style filter preserves the additional personalization options that were introduced when Bitomji’s switched to 3D in 2023, and so the results provide more poses and a detailed appearance than the original 2D Bitmoji’s did.
This update responds to a petition signed by nearly 100,000 Snapchat users who were unhappy with the switch to “ugly and weird” looking 3D avatars.
