We’re looking forward to reaching developers and publishers through great, informed storytelling with Raptor PR.”
Nicolas Gilot, CEO and Founder, Ultra, commented:
“Ultra is a platform with gaming at its core and which leverages cutting-edge technologies to improve on the status quo in the games industry.
