John Imah, Head of Games and Brands Partnerships at Snapchat also shared his thoughts: “Bitmoji are all about expression and having fun, and we’re thrilled to partner with Mattel163 to integrate them into a beloved game like UNO! that was created around those principals. When we launched Bitmoji for Games last year, we envisioned working with innovative partners like Mattel163 to personalize the player experience, and we can’t wait to see how players will create new shareable moments in UNO! with their Bitmoji.”
