The most ambitious visions of metaverse technology promise to create virtual places that offer the same possibilities as real world. However, any novel technology, raises controversies and questions. Does one want migrate metaverse? one's willingness move worlds depend on bonds with existing sense threat related this technology? To address these questions, we drew theories place attachment intergroup threat. In two studies – (1) among users open-world games (N = 366) (2) using a sample representative Polish population in terms age, gender size residential 995) observed low level metaverse. participants displayed high perceived metaverse-related threat, ranging from privacy concerns belief can deprive access essential human experiences. greater virtual, opposed real, was associated both an increased results provide better understanding individuals' perception how translate into attitudes towards technology.
