Before long, you’ll have the opportunity to include a Bigfoot emoji in your conversations, regardless of its official designation.

Unicode revealed that a “Hairy Creature” emoji will join the latest updates to its standard emoji collection with the launch of Unicode 17 in September. Below is the full list of emojis featured in the update.

• Trombone

• Treasure Chest

• Distorted Face

• Hairy Creature

• Fight Cloud

• Apple Core

• Orca

• Ballet Dancers

This is what the emojis appear like.

As noted by Engadget, Unicode — the organization that manages the emoji standard — may opt for “Hairy Creature” to promote universal comprehension, given that Bigfoot may not be the favored term everywhere. All eight emojis were among the expected additions for 2025, although a landslide emoji didn’t make it through.

Soon, your conversations can officially showcase a “Hairy Creature” or Bigfoot — whichever term you choose to use.
