[Reference] Overview of Virtual AKIBA World (VAW)
JR East opened the original virtual space VAW in March 2022 as part of the "Beyond Stations concept" to convert stations into a "connected" living platform. VAW virtually reproduces the station and town of Akihabara, a world-famous content gathering place, and is a space that can be easily experienced from a smartphone. Furthermore, by connecting the virtual space with real assets such as stations and trains that many customers use, we will make the virtual more familiar. Through VAW, we will direct the connection between people in both real and virtual.
