The funding round attracted prominent investors in the Web3 and blockchain gaming sectors, including Spartan Group, Immutable, MARBLEX, Comma3 Ventures, Sovrun, 32-Bit Ventures, Notch Ventures, Cristian Manea, Niels de Ruiter, and other notable angel investors. The capital infusion is earmarked for expanding the Immortal Rising 2 ecosystem, enhancing gameplay mechanics, and strengthening community engagement.
