Pets are coming to Xbox LIVE Avatar Marketplace

Recommended Videos

Because Microsoft can, Microsoft is unleashing downloadable pets over the Xbox LIVE Avatar Marketplace tomorrow.

According to Major Nelson, the platform publisher plans to release the following twelve pets for download: Large Dog, Pug Dog, Dog in Bag, Cat, Siamese Cat, Long Haired Cat, Goldfish, Guinea Pig, Monkey, Bird, Snake and Pony.

Each pet is said to cost an exact 240 Microsoft Points, which is considerably cheaper than a litter box. Or a proper shock stick.

We get the feeling that more precious animals will make their way to the Avatar Marketplace in the near future, but we’re still reeling from the serious lack of badger on the list. Fun fact: badgers are awesome pets. Just don’t try to feed one. Let it do its badger-thing, people.
