Cloudwhite, who met his partner at the 2022 Axie Infinity convention, AxieCon, saw no better way to celebrate their union than within the Web3 gaming space. The ceremony took place in Pixels Online, a relaxed adventure game where players can farm, explore, own land, and display NFTs.

The wedding was held at Terra Villa Central in the Pixels game on September 7, quickly becoming a hot topic in the Web3 gaming community.
Immortal Rising 2: 400,000 Pre-Registrations and Counting
