Speaking to UploadVR over email, studio CEO James Chung spoke a little about Roqovan’s demise. The World Wars Toons IP will go to a new company. At the time, the developer explained that “increasing difficulty of having both VR and 2D gameplay interacting together began to compromise what we could make at the timeframe we wanted to keep.” However, the studio removed the game from the PlayStation Store in September 2017. The game launched in open beta in the US for Sony’s PSVR headset when it released back in 2016. In 2015 Studio Roqovan (then named Reload Studios) raised $4 million to make the game a reality. It featured optional VR support set in a cartoonish version of the Second World War.
