Metaverse brings conveniences to human lives but there are also some difficulties appearing on the way presented as disadvantages and uncertainties. As a new thing for human life, its positive sides catch more attention.

In this study, the historical development of the internet and its current version are discussed. The history of the Internet, which started with Web 1.0 with a non-interactive and static structure, continued with Web 2.0 with an interactive and dynamic structure, has developed to the present day as Web 3.0 which can be interpreted by computers and machines. Moreover, in this study, the positive and negative effects of Metaverse that may have on human lives and games in the future is discussed and specified. In addition, financially important Blockchain technology that is widely used nowadays is also analyzed.
