Abstract
Embodiments of the present disclosure are directed to facilitating access to assets in a virtual and/or real-life gaming environment. For example, allocating assets in a Virtual Reality (VR) environment can comprise providing, to a VR user device, a representation of a virtual casino including a virtual asset, receiving, from the VR user device, a request to utilize the virtual asset, and performing a validation process on the request to utilize the virtual asset. In response to successful completion of the validation process, an electronic record associated with the virtual asset can be updated to indicate allocation of the virtual asset to a user of the VR user device. For example, allocating the virtual asset to the user of the VR user device can comprise allowing an avatar for the user to sit at a virtual gaming machine in the virtual casino.
