Meta (Facebook) presented its metaverse a few months ago. It seems that this new project of the social network has got off to a good start in the market. Since the Horizon Worlds platform has already reached 300,000 users in total, so it is a good number of users for this new bet. In addition, growth is expected in the coming months.
The Facebook metaverse already has 300,000 users
This platform has been launched so far only in the United States and Canada. Therefore, as it reaches more countries, a clear increase in this sense can be seen.
Good start
Horizon Worlds is a virtual reality platform where as a user it is possible to explore or create your own spaces. In addition, it is also possible to interact with other users. Meta has also taken measures to prevent harassment in this metaverse, to prevent situations like those that occur on Facebook from recurring. So far, more than 10,000 worlds have been created on this platform, according to the company.
Access to these worlds depends on whether or not you have an Oculus 2. If you have them, access is free at all times, but users must first have them in order to enjoy this metaverse that the social network has created.
Facebook loses active users for the first time
The metaverse is one of the future bets of the companyalthough it still has a long way to go. Since at the moment it is not something that generates hardly any income, the majority of its income continues to come from and data within Facebook. This bet may help them gain young users, who are clearly abandoning their social network, something that has had a notable impact on their stock market value.
