McDonald’s Singapore launched an interactive metaverse called ‘My Happy Place.’ This initiative was designed to engage customers through various activities, such as building virtual burgers and playing multiplayer games. The launch of My Happy Place marked a collaboration between McDonald’s Singapore and Bandwagon Labs, a brand with extensive expertise in digital environments.
The My Happy Place metaverse allowed users to interact with others in a shared space. Thus, it promoted creativity and social engagement. Players could earn rewards through daily challenges. The incorporation of Web3 technologies, including wallet hosting services like MetaMask, aimed to ensure secure user authentication and facilitate token-gated activities. The focus on tangible rewards, such as food items, counteracted common issues faced in metaverse experiences, like the lack of real-world incentives.
This project was available for a limited time, running from June 6 to July 7, and its success will determine potential future expansions.
