Last week, Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg announced on his Facebook account the launch of the Avatars Store, enabling individuals to purchase digital clothing items for their Metaverse avatar.
Meta is making the service available on Facebook, Instagram, and Messenger, allowing platform users to buy items for their digital Horizon avatar. Soon, Meta is also making Avatars Store available on virtual reality (VR) devices, like the Meta Quest. Last week, Meta launched Horizon Worlds in the UK for the first time, following a limited US release, with an extended European launch planned. Horizon Worlds is a Metaverse platform that combines a variety of VR environments to support immersive gaming, virtual events, enterprise-grade collaboration, and socialisation.

Meta runs a $10 million creator fund for building bespoke Horizon Worlds experiences. To protect users in Horizon Worlds, Meta employs peer-to-peer safety and privacy measures.
