There are millions of virtual worlds people visit every day to play games, socialise, and collaborate. Today, most of those worlds are closed and disconnected walled gardens. We are on a mission to build bridges between virtual worlds.
Ready Player Me is a cross-game avatar platform for developers, players, and content creators. We give players an avatar that travels with them across thousands of experiences and becomes their virtual identity. For game developers, we are an end-to-end avatar system that saves development time and helps them monetize better. Our avatar tools are used by 9000+ games, apps, and leading brands.
Built by Ready Player Me, PlayerZero is an avatar collectible platform that lets users create, customize, and evolve their digital identities across games, social media, and collectibles marketplaces. Our mission is to provide users with a singular, consistent identity that seamlessly integrates across multiple games and virtual worlds, enhanced by digital collectibles that enable avatars to grow and level up.
Our vision is to build bridges between virtual worlds, creating a truly interconnected experience for users. PlayerZero combines cutting-edge avatar technology, the cultural relevance of digital collectibles, and a commitment to an open, decentralized network of virtual worlds to shape the future of digital identity.
We are backed by top investors like Andreessen Horowitz (a16z), Plural, David Baszucki, co-founder of Roblox, Justin Kan, co-founder of Twitch, Sebastian Knutsson & Riccardo Zacconi, King Games co-founders, Konvoy Ventures, Endeavor and Samsung Next among many others.
Our team has built avatar systems for companies like Tencent, Huawei, HTC, and Verizon since 2014. We are working with well-known brands like Warner Bros, Adidas, Tommy Hilfiger, Dior, New Balance, and RTFKT.
With more than 9,000 developers and millions of users, Ready Player Me is the world's leading avatar platform.
Join us on this exciting journey and play a key role in shaping the future of self-representation in games and virtual experiences while building bridges between virtual worlds.
