    Avatar Gender


    Hi!

    I would like my avatar to reflect my gender. Not owning an Xbox, this wasn't really a concern before. But, now that MS owns Minecraft I don't need any confusion about my identity. I can't make a new profile, though, because my Minecraft (for Win10) account
    is already linked with this one.

    I also need to change my name, but it's going to be a while before I have an extra $10 to throw away on something that should be free.

    :)

    Is there any way to check what gender I used to sign up for Xbox live?

    Changing the information on windows live id will NOT effect your gamertag. However, I do not believe you have the option to select gender when creating your gamertag. Regardless, it would not effect your account. The only thing I can think of is the gender
    of your avatar - which is for selfexpression... and the only restriction is gender has to match avatar items. But you can change the avatar gender.

    Avatar Gender?

    Hi there,

    via the Xbox One when you change your avatar you can create a new one if you press the Menu button and then select settings. I just tried it and I can create a new one and then select a new one, where you can select a different gender based on some Random
    starting avatars

    Let us know the results

    Ken Hikage,

    To change the gender of your avatar, head over to
    live.xbox.com/AvatarEditor     , click Choose New Avatar, then select the gender you would like.

    In regards to the name change, as you have pointed out, you will need to pay for it given that you have chosen a gamer tag already. Hope this helps!

    Avatar Items and Purchasing Issues

    You could take this to the Wish List forum... Since the two genders' items are listed separately, they are separate purchases. (Let's assume that Microsoft is wanting you to pick the avatar gender that matches your actual gender, which changes for
    few people.) At least some Avatar Awards give both genders' version when you unlock them.

    Purchased avatar wardrobe items not showing up after changing avatars

    Hey there Shy! The changing of your Avatar's gender is exactly the cause here. When you purchase some Avatar gear, it's for only one gender. If you change later, that content will not be available on the new Avatar. It will be there if you ever change back
    though, so it's not gone forever.

    Regarding your new Avatar, any items that are for both genders, like some props, will still work. You may have to repurchase some content to get the version for the proper gender. I hope this helps explain the situation. Let us know if you have any further
    questions. Thanks!

    gender

    I believe you actually have to delete your avatar and start over. Don't worry, all your purchased content will still be there, but if you change the gender of your avatar, any specific items to the other gender will no longer be usable.
