With the metaverse becoming an increasingly popular concept across domains and businesses, India’s MG Motors becomes the first auto Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) to introduce their version of the metaverse platform with “MGverse”.
MGverse will provide an immersive experience to customers and stakeholders through five virtual services— ‘Explore and Create’ center; An NFT Gallery (Virtual Museum); A virtual MG Car Club; A gaming arena (P2E games); MG Knowledge Centre (for employees)
The recently launched MGverse will initially be available only on desktop web browsers and mobile phones as the company intends to integrate the same experience into virtual reality gadgets in the near future.
Speaking at the press conference of MGverse’s launch, MG Motor India’s Marketing Head, Udit Malhotra stated:
You can explore fiddle and tailor the class as you please. If you are buying a car, you will get an assisted buying experience with a personalized MGverse assistant who will be with you in the metaverse and help you make choices.
