| Abstract | ||||
| The integration of Extended Reality (XR)—including Virtual Reality (VR), Augmented Reality (AR), and Mixed Reality (MR)—into interactive advertising is reshaping how brands communicate with consumers. As digital environments become more immersive and personalized, XR technologies offer new pathways for consumer engagement. This paper explores the advantages, challenges, and future directions of XR and Metaverse-based advertising, focusing on their transformative potential in modern marketing. The study highlights key benefits such as enhanced consumer engagement, emotional connection, and the ability to experience products in simulated environments before purchase. XR advertising allows for hyper-personalization, interactivity, and multi-sensory experiences, offering users greater control and deeper involvement. Additionally, the convergence of XR with Artificial Intelligence (AI) and the Metaverse presents promising opportunities for more intelligent and adaptive advertising content. Despite these advantages, several challenges persist. These include high implementation costs, technological limitations, data privacy concerns, and the need for user education. Moreover, the rapidly evolving nature of XR technologies requires continuous innovation and adaptation by marketers to maintain relevance and effectiveness. Methodologically, the study employed a descriptive and analytical approach, supported by a review of relevant literature and case studies. The results reveal a growing trend of brands investing in XR technologies to improve consumer interaction and brand loyalty. In conclusion, XR and Metaverse technologies are poised to redefine the landscape of interactive advertising. Future research should explore deeper integration with AI, ethical considerations, and methods to overcome accessibility barriers, ensuring these technologies are inclusive and sustainable. | ||||
