Gacha Life 2’s Studio feature may seem simple enough at first glance, but powered with your imagination and the game’s vast customization options, you can create or recreate just about any scene you want!
NOTE: Changing a character’s features in the Studio, such as their mouth, eyes, or pose, will not alter their original customizations, so feel free to change their features to your liking!

A Lunime game won’t be a Lunime game without some sort of a Gacha system, and as expected, Gacha Life 2 also has one in place for their players to enjoy.
Here, you can get countless preset characters who are divided according to their rarity. You can even get other players’ fully customized, created characters here!

You can use the gacha as long as you have Gems, which you can get mainly by claiming Mail rewards or watching Ads.
One pull in the Gacha costs 10 Gems while doing a multi-pull, or 10 pulls at once, costs 100 Gems.

Characters that you can get through the gacha have six different rarities. Here’s the drop rate for each of those rarities:

On the Life page, you can update your data, visit a friend or a random player, or change your player name.
Make sure to update your data regularly, just so your eight copyable characters are always up to date and customized correctly—especially if you’ve made changes to them recently.

Most of the features on the Life page such as the Friend ID and Visit features are still under development, but do stay tuned for updates that might come in the near future.
These upcoming features will make the game more interactive as they will allow you to socialize with other players, so wait patiently until then!
Gacha Life 2: Five Best Tips For Beginners
If you’d like to get a headstart in Gacha Life 2 and unlock the game’s full customization options and features, here are some tips that you might want to keep in mind as a beginner!
TIP #1: Always Check Your Mailbox

Your Mailbox is located in your Home screen. Here, you’ll be able to see the latest news about the game.
More importantly, you can also claim free Gems given away by the devs and milestone rewards here!

Aside from watching Ads, claiming Gems from your Inbox is the only viable way to get Gems in the game.
Make sure to always check your Inbox for these free Gems, and also to keep up on current or upcoming events in Gacha Life 2!
TIP #2: Watch Ads For Extra Gems

Currently, Gems have no use outside of pulling characters in the Gacha.
However, if you find yourself lacking Gems while pulling for characters, always remember that you can get extra Gems by watching Ads.
Watching Video Ads gives you 2,000 Gems, which is more than enough for several 10x pulls in the Gacha.
TIP #3: Visit The Gacha Tube For Gacha Life Content & Content Creators
If you’d like to see content made by other Gacha Life 2 players, just visit the Gacha Tube page by clicking the Gacha Tube button at the right side of your Home screen:

Here, you’ll see videos made by other players and dedicated gacha-tubers that might pique your interest.
The links on the Gacha Tube page all lead to YouTube, so don’t worry about clicking them!

All in all, you can use the Gacha Tube to see exactly what you can do with Gacha Life 2’s Studio feature and the limits of its customization.
You may even get your content featured on the Gacha Tube! Just let your imagination run wild and create as much content as you want in story format, then upload them on YouTube.

NOTE: While all links in the Gacha Tube do lead to safe sites like YouTube, please keep in mind that some content may contain themes that are unsuitable for younger audiences. Be mindful of the content you watch!
TIP #4: Watch Out For Weekly Fashion Events
You can access the Fashion Weekly event page by clicking the Fashion Weekly button right above the Gacha Tube button, on the left side of the Home screen.

Here, you can see other creative Gacha Life 2 players who won the current Fashion Weekly contest.
Hence the name, new Fashion Weekly winners are picked and updated every week.

Moreover, winning the Fashion Weekly may just lead to your created character being featured as a preset character in the Gacha system.
Let your fashionable and imaginative side shine through and create as many unique characters as you can. You never know—your character might get featured in the Fashion Weekly!
TIP #5: Always Add Characters To Your Character Slots

If you’re having trouble making more characters to use in your Studio, worry not—you can just borrow other players’ created characters by saving them to one of your character slots!
You can do this every time you see an “Add Slot” button on the screen while you’re looking at another player’s created character, as highlighted in the image below:

Next, you can either save the character on your Main Slot, Studio Slot, or in one of your 300 other sub-slots for Featured characters:

And voila—you can now use these saved characters as cast on your upcoming Studio stories!
Again, keep in mind that you can also do this to characters you get from the gacha by going to the Gacha page, then to the Collection page, and clicking “Add Slot” for any character shown in your collection.
