Com2us Establishes VR Game Specialist Developer 'Com2us Roca'... "Expanding Metaverse Synergy"

[Asia Economy Reporter Kang Nahum] Com2uS announced on the 28th that it has established 'Com2uS Roca,' a virtual reality (VR) game specialized development company, and is making a full-scale entry into the global VR content market.

Com2uS Roca is a specialized studio established to produce existing and new intellectual properties (IP) into VR games and content across various genres. Com2uS co-founded Com2uS Roca with professional talents including CEO Shin Hyunseung, the main planner of the hit title ‘Blade,’ securing a 60% stake and incorporating it as a subsidiary.

VR games are a future growth industry with a continuously expanding market size due to the recent release of various devices and the entry of several global platform companies such as Facebook and Apple. Through the establishment of Com2uS Roca, a VR specialized studio, Com2uS plans to begin developing new VR game titles targeting the global market.

The currently planned new title targets VR users in Western regions such as North America, featuring easy controls, simple growth elements, and immersive action in the RPG genre. Starting with VR game enthusiasts and mid-core users, the target audience will gradually expand. In the future, differentiated titles tailored to next-generation VR devices and platforms, such as new-concept MMO VR games, will be introduced to strengthen market competitiveness.

Com2uS also expects to promote complex cooperation with partners across the content value chain, including the metaverse company Wizwick Studio acquired last August, through the establishment of Com2uS Roca. In fact, VR is considered a core component of the ultimate future metaverse ecosystem. Com2uS plans to build a multilateral cooperation system to create mega IPs that span the global content market by converting various existing original IPs into VR-form metaverse content.

A Com2uS official stated, “The establishment of this VR studio will be a stepping stone to securing solid competitiveness not only in the global VR market but also in the future metaverse industry,” adding, “We plan to strengthen the growth engine as a global comprehensive content company by integrating existing or newly created IPs with future content trends.”
