Facebook rebranding with a new name for the ‘Metaverse’

The social networking company is making plans to change its name; which would give a new path for their foundation of Metaverse. The company has an employee count of 10,000 that is making efforts in the AR world and Mark Zuckerberg believes that AR wearables are the next big thing.
