Ready Player Me's avatars.

Wolf3D launches Ready Player Me cross-game avatars for the metaverse

Wolf3D has launched its Ready Player Me cross-game avatars for the metaverse, the universe of virtual worlds that are all interconnected, like in novels such as Snow Crash and Ready Player One.

The avatars are already being used in more than 260 games and apps, and now players will be able to create custom avatars that they will be able to take between video games, virtual reality experiences, and other apps using a single virtual identity.
