Elaborating further on the launch of ASUS ROG store in Kolkata, Peter Chang, Regional Head - South Asia & Country Manager – System Business Group - ASUS India, said, “Most of the gamers today are not able to try and test the latest hardware and software before they buy it. With this store, our objective is to create an experiential zone where gamers come and try out the latest gaming technology and game titles first hand without having them to buy these. This ROG Store is not just a place to sell various gaming products, but more than that, we aim at making this a prominent gaming circuit in the city where the gamers meet, exchange information as well as enhance their gaming skills.”
