Abstract

This chapter delves into the transformative potential of immersive extended reality (XR) technologies, including virtual reality (VR), augmented reality (AR), and mixed reality (MR), in reshaping narrative construction and collaborative experiences. It introduces a four-dimensional framework that integrates Platform Affordances, Narrative Control, Participant Agency, and Adaptive Mediation to foster co-creative engagement in multi-user XR environments. The framework is designed to address the gap between immersive storytelling and co-creative practices, offering a structured approach to analyzing and designing XR systems. The chapter explores how these dimensions interrelate and influence the design of immersive, collaborative experiences, highlighting the importance of balancing narrative control, participant agency, and adaptive mediation. It also outlines future research directions and empirical studies to validate the framework, emphasizing the need for inclusive, resilient, and creatively generative immersive experiences.
