In January this year, the Unicode Consortium announced a bunch of new emoji characters that are coming this year, and they're right on schedule. With Apple releasing the second developer beta of iOS 14.2 and iPadOS 14.2 today. the whole set is unveiled. Naturally, these are specific to Apple's platforms, as each company can design its emoji characters however it wants.

One thing that's new in Emoji 13.0 is the reclassification of a number of characters as gender-neutral. That means that you can have a woman wearing a tuxedo and a man wearing a veil. There's even a gender-neutral version of Santa or Mrs. Claus called Mx Claus.

Of course, inclusivity isn't the only thing that's new. There are several new insects, such as the cockroach and the fly.
