Summary
These are more than just games; they are shared virtual play spaces designed to meet up, build worlds, battle on, buy virtual goods, dance off, and jam out.
It's no surprise that gaming and play are informing new business models and shaping the future of work in all kinds of settings.
The future of hybrid work is changing, and adding virtual reality into the mix of remote and in-office collaboration can create a new, dynamic workspace that gives businesses the best of both worlds.
Brands are exploring the creation of their virtual identities to help personify their values and beliefs into a virtual being that can show up live, in real time, on any channel.
Already we see companies expanding their organizational structures to include new roles such as director of metaverse engineering, head of Web3, avatar creator, virtual architect, builder, and real estate agent.
Immersive platforms are pushing the traditional work setting into mixed-merged worlds with team onboarding, virtual showrooms, virtual test labs, gamified gatherings, company celebrations, and more-all accessible from almost any device via laptop, mobile, or VR headset.
As workplaces evolve, workers will increasingly collaborate, create, and communicate in the metaverse.
