Ripple-supported Futureverse aims to integrate the widely acclaimed Ready Player One series into the metaverse.
The idea behind the new initiative is to bring Ernest Cline’s Ready Player One novel into a multi-world open ‘metaverse experience.’
Futureverse, a metaverse startup backed by 10T Holdings and Ripple Labs, has announced a partnership with Warner Bros.
Discovery to bring the Ready Player One franchise into the metaverse.
The initiative, called Readyverse Studios, aims to integrate major IPs into the multi-world open metaverse experience.
Ernest Cline, the author of Ready Player One, and Dan Farah, the producer of the film adaptation, are involved in the venture.
However, concerns have been raised about the potential risks and privacy threats associated with virtual reality experiences in the metaverse.
NYU Stern's Center for Business and Human Rights has emphasized the need for comprehensive privacy laws to address these issues.
