HANDS OVER XP: Unlocking Skins and Emotes

Can XP unlock skins and emotes?

Yes. In a Russian-language Steam discussion, a player suggested awarding money for wins to buy character skins. A developer replied that a similar mechanic already exists using experience points to unlock skins and emotes. This confirms an XP-based cosmetic system. Developer reply

How to assign an emote

The official Steam WARDROBE screenshot, labelled version 1.0.0r31, shows Characters and Emotions tabs. Its on-screen instructions describe this sequence:

1. Hover over an emotion to preview the animation.
2. Click it to assign it to one of four numbered slots.
3. Use the displayed slot number to identify its key binding.
4. Click a selected emotion again to remove it from the slot.

The slot numbers run from 1 to 4. These steps describe the official screenshot’s interface, not a hands-on test of every unlocked emotion. Official wardrobe screenshot

The lobby screenshot also shows a WARDROBE button, giving a visible entry point from that screen. Follow your installed version’s labels if they change. Official lobby screenshot

How much XP do wins and unlocks require?

The developer reply does not specify XP awards per win, earning rules or unlock prices. A progress bar in a promotional screenshot is one character’s displayed progress, not a general price or a reward formula. There is no verified XP farming route or complete cosmetic cost table in the sources cited here.

If an unlock appears wrong, record its displayed requirement and your XP before and after a match. That is more informative than comparing your progress with someone else’s screenshot.

Are more cosmetics planned?

ArtDock plans more skins, emotes and customization, but says its roadmap may change. Existing XP unlocks and planned additions are separate claims; a roadmap entry does not prove that a specific cosmetic is obtainable now. Official roadmap
