Abstract

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is a tool that is useful for enabling and sustaining the Metaverse gaming experience by infusing virtual reality (VR), augmented reality (AR), extended realities (XR), and blockchain. The current research focused on identifying the impact of AI in leveraging immersive experiences and improving human interaction, which plays a crucial role in Metaverse gaming. A quantitative analysis carried out surveys from 200 randomly sampled respondents involved in Metaverse gaming. Using SPSS 26.0, correlation analysis showed that association between the values of ‘r’ of variables Immersive Gaming Experience (r=0.983**), Deep Learning Collaboration (r=0.957**) and Increased Human Interaction (r=0.979**) are greater than 0.7 depicting strong correlation with Metaverse gaming. Regression analysis further confirmed that the role of AI in enhancing the Metaverse gaming experience and human interaction is significant. With the considerable success of AI in Metaverse, the role of DL algorithms is also groundbreaking in leveraging game balance in multiplayer games, satisfying play-testers and designers who own valuable features, real-time rendering, and multi-user design collaboration.
