If you believe the current information, the comprehensive update should be published in 2017. To make all of this possible, the game&#039;s developers have teamed up with the VR studio &quot;Experiment 7&quot;. By their character, they have explicitly specialized in the VR area and the creation of strategy games for this segment.
