And so, another prominent company has decided to climb aboard the metaverse train.

This time, it's Bandai Namco, who has just announced their plan to create an "IP metaverse" connecting all of their existing IPs into one shared space.

Needless to say, such a huge undertaking will require lots of dough to pull off, which is why they're sinking an estimated 15 billion yen into this project. Currently, Bandai Namco holds the game publishing rights to numerous prominent franchises like Elden Ring, Dark Souls, and Pac-Man, to say nothing of non-gaming-related ones like Dragon Ball Z. In other words, they've already got more than enough to work with.
