Ready Player One

Big news today in the world of AI and metaverse technology! Futureverse (a leading company in the realm of AI and metaverse tech) and the writer of the movie Ready Player One, Ernest Cline, are getting together to form a company called Readyverse Studios. 

Readyverse Studios is going to take the technology of AI and the metaverse and make them even more of a real experience using web3, metaverse games/experiences, and augmented and virtual reality technologies together. The goal is to bring the world of Ready Player One to real life. 

Readyverse has struck a deal with Warner Bros. Discovery for the rights to bring the Ready Player One franchise to the metaverse. 

If you’re not familiar with the movie, Ready Player One is set in a dystopian 2045 society where people use the OASIS system to escape the bleak reality in which they live. OASIS is a multiplayer virtual reality entertainment universe that grants users an entirely immersive experience in a range of situations, elements, and parameters. 

Users can meet up with a secret lover, run through the hills of a foreign land, or fight for the right to a top score on their favorite game. Readyverse is looking to create a system like that in real life. The experience of an immersive metaverse could be likened to that of a training course on the holodeck of the U.S.S. Enterprise … but it’s not a movie. 

The creation and launch of Mark Zuckerberg’s version of the metaverse (Facebook – Meta) was just two years ago, but the idea and concept of a metaverse have been around for many years. The term “metaverse” was first coined way back in 1992, more than 30 years ago. Neil Stephenson, the author of a book entitled Snow Crash was the first to officially use the term. 

The Readyverse will be constructed on the foundation of Futureverse’s extensive technology platform, and it will be available for users to explore sooner than you think. 

Flash forward to 2024, and Readyverse Studios is now promising the launch of “The Readyverse,” a “dynamic interactive platform of interconnected digital experiences.” Officially, Readyverse has struck a deal with Warner Bros. Discovery for the rights to bring the Ready Player One franchise to the metaverse. 

There’s no telling how the tangible format of this whole idea will truly pan out, but the implications are exciting, to say the least. The world may not yet be dismal enough to completely escape into augmented reality, but the option to virtually go anywhere with anyone in the world from the comfort of your living room is certainly engaging. 

Readyverse Studios will also have exclusive web3 rights to any and all future IPs (intellectual properties) that come from the mind of Ernest Cline, according to the new deal struck with Warner Bros. Discovery, so you can expect that the beginning of the metaverse is just that … the beginning. 

Readyverse Studios believes that Cline’s Ready Player One has done more to shape the global culture and conversation surrounding the metaverse than anything or anyone else thus far. It opened people’s eyes to what could be. 

The Readyverse will be constructed on the foundation of Futureverse’s extensive technology platform, and it will be available for users to explore sooner than you think.  Ernest Cline said of the new Readyverse metaverse, “The future has arrived even more quickly than I (had) imagined”.
