Metaverse is the modern terminology that is very popular among game developers. Even though there is a huge scope in Metaverse games, it is sometimes not very easy to understand all the concepts. Open world games are something different from Metaverse games but Open world games can also be a Metaverse games. There is a high possibility that there can be confusion in understanding open-world games and Metaverse games. The developers can also convert an open-world game to a metaverse game easily if they integrate it with blockchain and introduce some of the features that are exclusive to blockchain games. 

## Metaverse is a blockchain game

Usually, the Metaverse game is always integrated with blockchain. Some of the features of metaverse games will involve cryptocurrencies and the concepts around the crypto world. One of the biggest things would be the facility to create virtual assets and have a value tagged against them. This is something that is not a possibility for a normal real-world game. Imagine if you are buying a car in GTA and that digital version of the car also has a utility or value in the real world. Another example would be to see Bill Gates or other celebrities purchasing a house near your house in a city simulation game.

## Metaverse can be an open-world game

Not all open-world games can be a Metaverse game but a metaverse game can also be an open-world game. As mentioned earlier, developers can also convert the open-world game into a metaverse game. They can come up with concepts to digitalize the game assets and introduce some interesting concepts. In the open-world metaverse game, someone can make a digital deal with people in the real world. 

## Metaverse games will be ever existing

Usually in the normal games when we quit the game would and probably when we get back in, we might be able to get back to the save point. But in a metaverse game, when we quit the game, we will only get disconnected from the game. The digital world will still be functional and there will be other people having their activities inside the game without our presence in the game.

## Metaverse can give better-earning opportunity

One of the biggest advantages the Metaverse games can bring us is the earning opportunity. The open-world games can be fun to play but they wouldn't generate money for us unless we play tournaments and participate in challenges. In the Metaverse games, we will be able to interact with other players and also make money from the game. Some games might just pay the players for playing the game and other games would involve a market that helps in trading assets between the players. It will be a good earning opportunity for the future.
