From a business POV, whoever stakes the metaverse first, has entrenched their game engine.
The metaverse will not be AAA budget quality, anything of that caliber, such as Fortnite, can easily be scrapped off potentials. A metaverse is by definition community created content, most of it will be utter garbage.
VRChat exists. It doesn't look pretty, but it works.
Putting a bridge between Minecraft and Fortnite doesn't make a metaverse, it's just a bigger walled garden with a bridge.
