An example electronic device may include at least one processor and a communication device. The at least one processor may be configured to identify a call generating request for first user identification information defined in a first metaverse service; establish, through the communication device, a media session between the electronic device and a first server corresponding to the first metaverse service, based on the call generating request; receive, through the communication device, first data for representing a virtual space associated with an avatar corresponding to the first user identification information, using the media session; provide first content representing the virtual space associated with the avatar using the received first data; transmit, through the communication device, a message including user manipulation information input corresponding to the content; receive, through the communication device, second data for representing a virtual space associated with the avatar set based on the user manipulation information, using the media session; and provide second content representing the virtual space associated with the avatar using the received second data.

Electronic device performing call with user of metaverse and method for operating the same

An electronic device connected to a first communication network is provided. The electronic device may include: a communication module comprising communication circuitry; a processor operatively connected to the communication module; and a memory operatively connected to the processor, wherein the memory may store instructions that, when executed, cause the processor to control the electronic device to: transmit a message requesting a call connection through a first transmission protocol to an external electronic device using the communication module; receive a provisional response message for the request through the first transmission protocol from the external electronic device using the communication module; connect to a second communication network using the communication module based on the call connection not being supported by the first communication network; transmit a response message for the received provisional response message through a second transmission protocol to the external electronic device using the communication module; and perform the call connection using the connected second communication network.
