Infinite Reality, a maker of immersive virtual experiences, bought Ethereal Engine for $75 million in a share swap.

Los Angeles-based Ethereal Engine is a creator of end-to-end frameworks for web-first, social immersive experiences. It sounds like a metaverse company, but Norwalk, Connecticut-based Infinite Reality isn’t using that word.

The share-for-share acquisition values Infinite Reality at $2.5 billion and Ethereal Engine at $75 million.

The transaction establishes a multi-billion-dollar valuation benchmark for Infinite Reality following the December 2023 partnership and equity swap with Greenidge Generation Holdings. That means that the market values the company at $2.5 billion.
