Somnia has introduced the Metaverse Browser, a sleek and easy-to-use interface designed to make Metaverse accessible to everyone, from Web3 novices to experts. This new browser aims to simplify interactions with blockchain DApps and metaverse content and overcome the challenges of existing distribution platforms that need to be Web3-friendly.

The Event Content Page allows users to discover and interact with metaverse events on the Somnia network, and the Quest Tracker helps users keep track of their adventures and progress within Somnia. Furthermore, the Faucet app allows users to purchase Seoplia ETH to easily fuel their activities.
Future developments

Planned improvements include open development resources that will allow developers to create and deploy their apps in the browser, promoting a decentralized platform like Steam or the Epic Game Store.
Future updates will allow users to integrate their wallets and improve performance, ensuring a smooth and reliable user experience. Somnia plans to introduce new apps and experiences to expand the app ecosystem and is prioritizing the development of a mobile version to bring the full capabilities of the desktop version to smartphones and tablets.
