Alternative City v1

Alternative City v1, which has seen progress in its construction, will be opened as of ver. 0.7.0.
Avatar clothing and accessories can be purchased at “ALTERMODE,” and avatar build, hair, and other features can be customized at “ALT BEAUTYS.”

Alternative City will be further developed as the cultural center of Holoearth with the addition of more facilities and features in the future.

ALTERMODE

The fashion shop “ALTERMODE” will open on the main avenue.
A range of avatar clothing and accessories will be available to try on and purchase.

Avatar Items

An initial lineup of 72 new clothing items will be introduced for avatars.
Enjoy putting together outfits perfect for outings on the town unique to your own taste and style!

About Shop Inventory

Avatar items for sale will have limited stock.
The stock status for each item will change as follows based on the quantity remaining:

Sold out items may be restocked.

Please note that multiples of the same item can be purchased more than once.
In the future we are considering adding features that will offer more uses for avatar items, such as housing decoration or or trade. But as of this update, players will only be able to equip one of the same avatar item at a time, regardless of how many are held.

In addition, later we are planning to assign lot numbers and serial numbers to purchased avatar items.
Lot numbers become sold out when inventory is added and are updated when item inventory stock is replenished. Stock added at the same time will share the same lot number.
The lower the value of the lot number, the earlier the lot was sold after being added.

Serial numbers are assigned by item type and are in the order of which items are purchased from the shop.
The serial number increases as the item is purchased by players at the fashion shop; the serial number will also increment if the same player makes repeat purchases of the item.
So, the lower the number, the earlier the item was sold at the shop.

We will announce the relevant details along the update for this feature.
*As the lot number and serial number feature is under development, the implemented version may differ in some ways from what is explained here.

ALT BEAUTYS

ALT BEAUTYS will open behind the main central building of the city.
ALT BEAUTYS has both a styling salon and a clinic.
Avatars can be customized or rebuilt at these facilities.

*Customizing avatars will require “ALT BEAUTYS Points” and “RebuildCores” that are part of the ver. 0.7.0 update.

Styling Salon

At ALT STYLE players can exchange ALT BEAUTYS Points to edit their avatar’s eyes, makeup, hair, and other face features.
Additionally, at ALT STYLE specifically the bangs, sides, and back of the avatar’s hairstyle will be separately customizable.

Additionally, players can exchange RebuildCores to completely remake their avatar including all of its options.
