Have you ever wondered if our reality is a dream and a dream is our reality? Well, in the near future, they will be the same.

In the future, we will be able to live in a place that is not real, but we can do anything we want there. It will be like a dream.

If you’ve watched Leonardo DiCaprio’s Inception, you would have seen a scenario that could show how the Metaverse will look like. They called it a ‘dream-sharing program’.

Or how about Keanu Reeve’s Matrix, when they refer to the Matrix itself as a game inside our heads that we play on and go adventures into.

Metaverses as a concept have existed for a long time — digitally shared universes where we can interact with other people, in this case, players, and do whatever we want.

So what the hell is a Metaverse?

First, you could think of the movie Ready Player One.
