The Future of Entertainment: BBC's Leap into the Metaverse

A massive shift is happening in immersive entertainment...

...and finally the BBC is venturing into what we've been doing for three years at MetaHub XR.

In fact, I've been pioneering events in metaverses before Meta was called Meta.

Here's my take.

The BBC just invested in Bristol-based 3D streaming startup Condense.

This capitalises on a trend towards virtual experiences.

Condense lets audiences experience live events in game-like 3D spaces.

The BBC's move signals growing acceptance of metaverse technologies.

With Apple’s Vision Pro headset and renewed interest in Web3, the landscape is changing fast.

Demand for affordable, accessible virtual experiences is rising.

Customisable, immersive spaces drive engagement and enhance user experience.

As the market evolves, the metaverse is set to revolutionise live entertainment.

Virtual experiences are both engaging and practical.

Here's the advice I'd give the BBC about venturing into the metaverse:

Crafting the virtual world is only half the battle; mastering onboarding and facilitation in virtual spaces is a skill set all of its own.

We’re pushing the boundaries of the metaverse, and the BBC’s investment in Condense shows its importance.
