The bibliometric analysis highlights the rapid growth of research on metaverse and virtual reality since 2021, driven by technological developments corporate interests. data show a clear predominance technical studies (AI, blockchain, 5G) over social environmental issues, with sustainability digital divide representing less than 5% publications. Geographically, China, US, India concentrate academic production, marginalizing perspectives from Global South. Although promising applications in resilient agriculture inclusive design are identified, these remain marginal niches. Security privacy emerge as recurring concerns, but lack robust ethical frameworks to address emerging risks. Methodological limitations, such bias toward English-language publications, reinforce need incorporate diverse voices non-traditional sources. study concludes that development requires transdisciplinary approaches, policies, critical education ensure innovation does not reproduce existing inequalities instead promotes true equity.
