Wendy's to launch a virtual restaurant on April 2
Wendy's Co. announced the April 2 launch of its first virtual restaurant, in partnership with Meta's Horizons World. Wendyverse will feature a restaurant that replicates a bricks-and-mortar Wendy's location, and the Buck BiscuitDome, a basketball court where guests can be on court, and get deals on real-life Wendy's menu items. Users must have a Quest 2 virtual reality headset to participate in the 3D world. Those without the headset can go to the Wendyverse website for a viewer-only experience. Wendy's stock has gained 9.8% over the past year.
