As the metaverse keeps expanding and implicating more and more industries, brands will need to understand not just the big picture; it will be critical to zoom into individual aspects of this multilayered landscape in order to uncover the right opportunities for organic integration.
In the last few months, it has been almost impossible to avoid
the “metaverse”.
Back in March of 2020, we first dipped our toe in the pool by publishing a trend about the fledgling decentralized art community. Ever since then, we’ve been mapping out the metaverse on Nextatlas through its precipitous rise to near-ubiquity; as virtual spaces continue to diversify and bigger and bigger names enter the fray, it’s becoming abundantly clear that having a firm grasp on the metaverse will be a key imperative across any number of industries in the coming years.
What’s happening in there, what does it look like, and why does everyone from bellwether brands to a horde of young digital natives care so much?
We’ve got all your answers and more in our latest addition to the Nextatlas platform: the Metaverse Focus. Designed specifically to help you grasp the full scope of this burgeoning landscape, we looked at the metaverse from every individual angle to provide a picture you can trust. And the picture we found was one of staggering growth in the last year and, more importantly, continued growth into the new year.
The timeline is an aggregation of all 6 themes; it offers an overview of the topic's development at large.
Further, to help you see all those angles for yourself, we broke the metaverse down to its parts through 6 succinct thematic areas:
The pie chart illustrates the relative weight of each theme on our aggregated view of Metaverse.
Even more, informed by our constantly updating data stream, the relative contribution to the overall topic as well as future growth forecasts are tracked for each individual thematic area. So even as discussions pull the metaverse in new directions, you’ll be able to track what’s most important and where it’s headed.
In an area as sprawling as the metaverse, it’s key to not just see the full picture; rather, being able to identify the specific opportunities for growth, innovation, and engagement is an invaluable asset.
Each Thematic Area ("Aesthetics" shown above) offers a deep dive into the unique details charting its individual evolution
