Pixels Migrating to Ronin
In a statement, Sky Mavis revealed that by moving to Ronin, Pixels will be able to benefit from lower gas fees, go-to-market and advisory support from the developer’s team members, and the use of Mavis Hub—Ronin’s distribution platform for web3 games.
Aleksander Larsen, COO and Co-Founder of Sky Mavis, expressed his excitement to welcome the game into Ronin and provide it with their infrastructure and technology.
“This deal is also a big value add for our community and Pixel’s open world allows for NFT collections to have their own spaces. In the future, we envision a world where our community has the opportunity to build an Axie space, enabling more social interaction.”

What is Ronin Blockchain?
Ronin, a blockchain specifically developed for gaming, is the only blockchain that has been proven to scale a single game to accommodate millions of daily active users, Sky Mavis stated.
In March, the company opened its Ronin platform to leading game studios to develop successful Web3 games. Directive Games, Tribes, Bali Games, Bowled.io, SkyVu, and Zillion Whales were the first game studios to announce plans to build on Ronin.
In the same month, the Ronin wallet, Sky Mavis’ own software wallet , was updated in March to include a number of enhancements, such as a Social Login feature, integration of Threshold Key Management, convenient access to Axie Accessories within the Collectibles tab, and other improvements aimed at enhancing the overall user experience.
