On September 14th, Gatebox released version 2.0.0 of its smartphone app, “Gatebox Collection.” New features include the ability to converse with an avatar using AI.
Gatebox Collection is a smartphone app that lets you collect digital figures of characters, featuring animated 3D models. It’s compatible with iOS and Android. By scanning the dedicated download card, “Gatebox Card,” you can obtain digital figures of popular characters. If you have a VRM model (a 3D avatar file format) that you already own, you can also use it to create digital figures of your own avatar.
One of the new features added in this update is “Living Mode.” You can now watch your avatar move around freely and live in a room with chairs and a table. Another new feature, “Talk Mode,” allows you to enjoy voice conversations with your avatar. Both of these features are available when you subscribe to the newly established premium plan.

The premium plan allows you to customize the voice, profile, and lifestyle for each avatar. Lifestyle settings specify activity times, frequency, and gestures, which are reflected in how you spend time in living room mode and in conversations in talk mode. A 7-day free trial of all features is also available before registration.
In addition, it now supports importing VRMA, an animation format that records avatar movements. Along with the addition of the two modes, the UI within My Avatar has also been updated. The model import and save limit has changed to 2 for regular users and 20 for premium users.
