'This has led to cases of adults entering the game under a false identity to groom children.' 'The game states that players found to be a different age to the one entered will be banned, but all that's needed to create an account is an email address, which anyone can set up,' National Online Safety explains in its guide to the game. However, the game never asks players to verify their age. However, while Polar sees this social aspect as a positive for the metaverse, it's raised safety concerns among many parents.Īvakin Life is listed as 12+ on the iOS store and asks for a player's age when they first join. 'I believe the metaverse is here so people can be together wherever they are and have more ways to communicate and interact with virtual personalities and artists just like me and the many others out there right now.' 'This is also a great opportunity for me to meet with them too "on the same side of the screen" just as we have done at the Avakin Life Solar Sounds Festival this week.'
'So many of my fans already have extended social lives in the Metaverse in places like Avakin Life where they can meet and hang out with new friends from all over the world. 'The Metaverse is going to play a massive part in expanding everyone's perspective on the world which goes beyond entertainment like music and gaming. Speaking exclusively to MailOnline, Polar said: 'I was born in the Metaverse and so it really is part of my reality but when you look at the outside world, it's super clear to see that what we have now is really just a tiny look at what the future holds.
Polar is a digital popstar on Avakin Life, and boasts over 587,000 subscribers on YouTube, 1.6 million followers on TikTok, and 21,500 followers on Instagram. The game lets players create a virtual avatar (an 'Avakin'), style it in fashionable outfits, buy and decorate properties, and interact with others in communal spaces. Avakin Life is a metaverse game that describes itself as 'life, but better,' and now has over six million people playing every month.
