Abstract

In this article, the authors analyze the impact of the Metaverse on the use of advertising and intellectual property elements by users of this digital environment, mainly focusing on its business or commercial use. Likewise, some real complaints filed at the international level are presented in order to understand how they would correspond to be analyzed with Peruvian regulations; In this way and with this methodology, it will be possible to define if the current regulation allows to overcome the advertising and intellectual property problems in this fictitious world called “Metaverse”, that is to say: if “reality is stranger than fiction”.
