バーチャル大阪は "City of
Emergence"（創発する都市）をテーマに設計された都市連動型メタバースです。
様々な企業が現実世界をそのままにバーチャル化する技術を競う中で、バーチャル大阪はこの一箇所に「大阪の魅力」を集めて抽象化し、エンターテイメントとして楽しめる形で発信するところが画期的です。
さらに、ユーザの皆様が想像する大阪を投稿したり、イベントを体験してもらったりすることで、知られざる新しい大阪の魅力や文化が「創発」することを目指しています。
その創発した魅力は現実にまで続発し、リアルな大阪の都市を変えていくのではないでしょうか？
大阪府・大阪市の声明のもと、実績あるKDDI株式会社、吉本興業ホールディングス株式会社、株式会社博報堂の皆様の力強いコラボレーションで、バーチャル大阪の舞台をご用意いただきました。わたしたちの大阪を、みんなで創る、「バーチャル大阪」にぜひご参加ください！
