I just saw an ad about some new VR advancement and it reminded me of a book I read in middle school. It was about a boy and his friends who would play on this highly immersive VR world. They had capsules or small cubicle like rooms they would get unit to “load” the VR world. They had status, money, and the whole ordeal of a virtual life. I don’t think any of them new each other in person because they all met inside this VR world. I believe the antagonist was either a hacker or it was some sort of glitch. The issue was that players would die in real life if they would die in this VR world. That’s about all I can re-collect after scouring for the name. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Could potentially be The Eye of Minds! It was a series I also read in middle school, and has a very similar premise to the one you’re describing here!
