Rohit Dahda, India Head G2A.com, said: “India is a very big market of gamers with 25-30 thousand visiting Comic Con in Mumbai this year. As a global leader, G2A focus on creating innovative products, something out of the box. G2A Land is the latest breakthrough for game lovers who can experience the full effect of virtual reality wearing the Oculus headset which tricks the eyes and mind into believing that what they see is completely real. At Comic Con visitors had the full explanation of virtual reality as well as experiencing directly the latest technology.”
Marcin Kryszpin, Head of Oculus Team at G2A.com explained that working on the G2A Land project was a big adventure: “It was a journey of discovery with many challenges along the way.” He added: “We continue to experiment in order to create something luxurious and friendly for all players.”
