Metaverse is breaking down the boundaries between the real world and the virtual world, and companies are rushing into the metaverse platform competition. Type analysis of metaverse utilizes classification according to function the most, but there is a limit to classifying it due to the emergence of various types of platforms. In this study, a framework for classifying metaverse platforms according to the purpose of use and experiential methods was presented, and the platforms were classified. In addition, each type of characteristic keyword was presented and the frequency of use of each type was investigated. It was found that immersion was the most used in game-type platforms and highly immersive in industrial platforms. It is meaningful as a case in which the classification criteria, characteristics, and related terms of the platform are conveyed in the metaverse industry, and is expected to be used as a useful data in metaverse-related research conducted from various perspectives.
