Not familiar with the metaverse? Here’s a handy definition: It’s a “digital reality that combines aspects of social media, online gaming, augmented reality (AR), virtual reality (VR), and cryptocurrencies to allow users to interact virtually,” Investopedia.com said. “Augmented reality overlays visual elements, sound and other sensory input onto real-world settings to enhance the user experience. In contrast, virtual reality is entirely virtual and enhances fictional realities.

“As the metaverse grows, it will create online spaces where user interactions are more multidimensional than current technology supports. Instead of just viewing digital content, users in the metaverse will be able to immerse themselves in a space where the digital and physical worlds converge.”

Galaxy Racer, which has offices in Los Angeles, organized the Girl Gamer Festival, the first and only eSports festival dedicated to celebrating women’s competitiveness in video games, as well as the Gamers Galaxy: Dota 2 Invitational Series Dubai 2022, the largest eSports tournament in the MENA region with a total prize pool of AED 1 million ($3.67 million).

The organization also just started the HER Galaxy program, a series of leagues across North America for female players.
