Lego and Epic games are collaborating to build a child-friendly metaverse while also providing an immersive and fun digital environment for children to play in.
Epic Games and Lego haven't revealed any specifics about their future metaverse at this time. They did, however, reveal three principles that will guide them as they build a secure digital environment.
First and foremost, they will always put children's safety and well-being first. Furthermore, their privacy will be paramount. Finally, both children and adults will have access to tools that will allow them to manage their digital lives.
According to Niels B Christiansen, the CEO of Lego, as kids enjoy playing in digital and physical worlds and move seamlessly between the two, they believe in the huge potential for them to develop lifelong skills such as creativity, collaboration, and communication through digital experiences. He added that there is a responsibility to make them safe, inspiring, and beneficial.
While the metaverse is an online playground, users can play games and watch Netflix movies together.
Tim Sweeney, Epic's CEO and founder, said the company is working on a "family-friendly" digital experience that will empower kids to become confident artists.
