Infiniteloop teased the next DLC character for the application Desktop Mate on social media, and it looks like Sanrio mascot Hello Kitty is on the way. There’s no release date for the add-on yet. The image also didn’t show how she’ll look in-app when hanging out on our desktops. 

The image is vague. It shows a silhouette of Hello Kitty sitting against a white and grey-striped background, so there’s no screenshot from Desktop Mate used. At the top is the Sanrio trademark, helping to confirm that this is her. Across the front is the text “coming soon.” This statement appears in Japanese and English, just like all past add-on reveals, so the DLC will show up everywhere.

Here’s the official teaser image.

This comes after multiple Vocaloids appeared in Desktop Mate. In December 2025, Kagamine Rin and Len showed up. Those were sold separately, but have special interactions if both are owned. More versions of Hatsune Miku showed up after that. Both Snow Miku 2026 and JR Tower versions launched. The official roadmap on Steam only shows two more “coming soon” spots.

Desktop Mate is available on Steam, and Hello Kitty will be the next DLC character to be added to the application.

More Desktop Mate DLC is here and coming, with the immediately available items being two versions of Reimu from the Touhou Project series and the upcoming ones being two VOCALOMAKETS Vocaloids. The $14.99 Hakurei Reimu and $7.49 Yukkuri Reimu add-ons are live now, and Kizuna Akari and Yuzuki Yukari will launch on December 9, 2025. 

In the case of the Touhou Project Desktop Mate additions, both DLC feature versions of the same character. They can be purchased alone or in a $20.23 bundle together. Yukkuri Reimu is less expensive due to, well, her being just a head. That includes Nonoko’s design and a new 3D model. The Hakurei Reimu option is more detailed, both due to the fact that she includes new voiced lines by Sumire Uesaka and actions that involve her shrine maiden duties. It also features a custom wallpaper inspired by the series from Nonoko. 

Here’s the trailer showing them off:

And you can see the official screenshots of both below.

As for the Vocaloids Kizuna Akari and Yuzuki Yukari, we know some details about that. Those will feature VOCALOMAKETS audio for their voiced lines. Characters will have special actions. Juu Ayakura will also work on their models. 

Here’s how those will look:

Desktop Mate is available on PCs and the Touhou Project Hakurei Reimu and Yukkuri Reimu DLC are out now.
