In fact, the integration of AR and VR in multiplayer gaming has revolutionized player interaction by offering immersive and captivating experiences. On the other hand, AR and VR multiplayer game design faces significant challenges related to technological limitations, complicated user interface design challenges, patterns of social interaction, and growth problems. This paper reviewed those design challenges and looked into possible solutions through a review of recent work. The results bring out some strategies that could help in making multiplayer AR and VR games more effective; thus, enhancing the user experience.
