Pokémon GO developer Niantic has released a new platform for building “real-world metaverse” apps. The platform, called Lightship, will help other developers to build their own augmented reality applications. Most of the software is free. Niantic will charge for a feature that allows multiple devices to access shared AR experiences. Niantic has also announced a $20 million fund to support developers who “share our vision for the real-world metaverse”.
