How to try an emote
StepWhen you join the game, a list of available emotes appears on your screen. Select any emote from that list and your avatar plays it immediately, so you can see exactly how it looks in real time.
- Open the emote list it appears as soon as you enter the game.
- Tap an emote your avatar performs it right away.
What happens after you buy
CheckYou do not need to do anything extra after buying. The emote is added to your Roblox inventory the moment the purchase goes through, and that inventory is shared across all Roblox experiences, not just this game.
- The emote appears in your Roblox inventory automatically no manual transfer needed.
- You can equip and use it in any other Roblox experience that supports emotes.
