The metaverse, which is an invented universe containing rapidly developing online environments, enables a more dynamic learning environment. An improvement in asynchronous interaction that allows numerous individuals to share different observations is the the metaverse. A method of study for implementing metaverse education is proposed in this paper. Applying the PRISMA approach, a systematic examination of the literature found 73 studies on the metaverse and learning. This study also offered a variety of uses, difficulties, prevalent topics in research, and potential use of a metaverse in education in decades to come. This suggested structure goes over a number of reasons why a metaverse should be used in education. The study attempts to fill the gap left by paucity of studies in schooling in the metaverse. Additionally, 27 new research topics were put up in this study for potential future study by scholars. Both learners and instructors at higher education institutions, universities, and institutions are going to benefit from this research.[1]
