Every activity that is present in the real Yas Island will be found in the digital version of Metaverse. People can experience zooming around the F1 track, and visiting the plethora of immersive theme parks and whatnot without visiting Abu Dhabi. This digital version of the popular island is going to be a milestone moment for the founding group behind Yas Island.
To turn the 25 sq km island into a world of the future, the Department of Culture and Tourism Abu Dhabi (DCT Abu Dhabi) has partnered with a variety of companies and tech firms. The list includes Flash Entertainment, Miral, Abu Dhabi Motorsport, and Roblox. Once connected it will allow users to interact, have fun, and discover the island.
