Rift players to attempt a world record
Players of MMO Rift will attempt to set Guinness World Records title for virtual marriages
Trion Worlds has announced today that it will attempt to make videogame history this Valentine’s Day by establishing the world record for most virtual marriages in a 24 hour period.
Trion’s massively multiplayer online game (MMOG), Rift, will serve as the venue for the record attempt, which will begin at 9am PST on February 14.
“MMOs are the most fun when you’re playing with friends and loved ones,” said Scott Hartsman, Trion’s CCO. “We think the Valentine’s Day record attempt is a unique way for players to celebrate Rift’s spirit of camaraderie while making real-world history.”
Tying the knot in the virtual world of Telara can happen with the new wedding functionality about to be introduced to the Rift game world in Update 1.7 at the beginning of February. Players simply visit a marriage vendor in their faction’s capital city, purchase a ring, and humbly offer it to the object of their affection. Players can also launch wedding events, scripted ceremonies that involve a walk down the aisle in wedding garb, a ring exchange, and a reception for up to 200 friends.
Any player with a Trion Account is eligible to take part in the event, and a Valentine’s Day-exclusive in-game title (“Tier of Knots”) will be awarded to each wedded character.
