Readyverse Studios is a pioneering studio co-founded by Futureverse Co-Founders Shara Senderoff and Aaron McDonald, alongside Ernest Cline, the best-selling novelist and creator of the Ready Player One franchise, and Dan Farah, the film's producer.
Readyverse Studios is dedicated to transforming the vision of the open metaverse depicted in Cline’s Ready Player One novel and its blockbuster film adaptation into a reality; a multi-world, multi-IP, interoperable open metaverse experience for mass consumers.
The studio holds an exclusive IP license from Warner Bros. Discovery to bring the Ready Player One franchise to the metaverse, with additional brands and franchises set to join The Readyverse soon.
Readyverse Studios will launch “The Readyverse,” a next-gen immersive and interoperable launcher designed for discovering metaverse games and experiences that integrate web3 and AI-generated content (AIGC) technologies. This platform empowers users, developers, and brands to create interconnected experiences.
The Readyverse will uphold the principles of the open metaverse, including provable digital ownership, community-owned infrastructure, decentralization, security, and interoperability. It will be built utilizing Futureverse’s extensive technology platform.
