“All humans have a desire to play, in one way or another. And as the creators of Rogue Ascent VR, we believe that those who choose VR for their “play” should be offered the very best, most innovative experiences possible,” said Jordan McGraw, CEO of Nooner Bear Studio. “Rogue Ascent offers a replayable, addicting, fulfilling experience you can talk about with friends and other players in the community.”
