Twitter launch special emojis for #AsianGames2018

With under four days to go until the 2018 Asian Games, the conversation continues to heat up. Once it begins, Twitter will be the only place for sports fans to find real-time updates about what’s happening on the ground and experience the excitement on and off the platform.

In celebration of the biggest sports event in Asia, Twitter has launched three special emojis in the shape of:

• the official Asian Games logo,
• a torch that symbolizes the energy of Asia,
• and the 3 mascots.

Available until the month of October, the emoji will appear when the following hashtags are used in Tweets:
