This work represents how AR, VR, blockchain, and AI affect conventional marketing approaches. It speaks of changes such as e-stores and NFTs, the gamification, all to optimize traditional environments and design lively clients’ experiences. They recommend consumer behaviour analysis, ethical concerns, and diversity within the Metaverse as the future research agendas for this research. It analyses Decentraland and The Sandbox as immersive platforms, virtual commerce, and ‘gamification’ of marketing, and more, as immersive models. Customer Experience 3.0 demonstrates that through advanced technologies, organisations can reimagine customer engagements and generate value by turning clients into fans.
