It’s no surprise that a day after the Star Wars: The Force Awakens trailer release, the internet is talking of nothing but Star Wars. Even Twitter.
Twitter has won the hearts of Star Wars fans all over the world after they announced their cool new collaboration with the epic saga.
According to Mashable, three new emoji-like icons, which are specifically only for Twitter and Twitter’s official apps (they don’t appear in Tweetdeck), appear once users tweet Star Wars-related hashtags: #C3P0, #Stormtrooper and #BB8.
Each of the three icons are characters in the upcoming film, The Force Awakens. Cool isn’t it?
The emoji are to celebrate the theatrical release of “The Force Awakens,” which is set for December 2015.
According to Twitter’s official blog , we might get more than just three emojis. “A variety of custom emojis will be released in honor of the upcoming film, including iconic legacy characters and a handful of new characters from #TheForceAwakens. The first three #StarWarsEmojis debuted today during the Star Wars Celebration in Anaheim, California.”
