SuperGaming’s Indus Battle Royale teaser goes live, pre-registrations to start later this year
Indus, the Made-in-India Battle Royale title developed by SuperGaming based in Pune, will soon open for pre-registrations. As part of Independence Day celebrations, the company unveiled the game’s trailer in New York’s Time Square. The upcoming game, Indus, will be accessible on PC, consoles, and mobile platforms. SuperGaming emphasizes that Indus is crafted specifically for an Indian audience, presenting an alternate universe where the Indus Valley civilization has progressed significantly.
Roby John, Co-founder and CEO of SuperGaming, mentioned, “Indus is at a stage where within the development team, we are able to play it in-house regularly. While there’s still some work to be done before we can bring Indus to all of you, this trailer shows what we’re crafting to match your expectations and our ambition of putting India on the global gaming map.”
Indus focuses on Indo-Futurism, featuring levels set in India. SuperGaming invited players, content creators, and esports professionals for a game test at its studio, with the Indus Community Playtest revealing that over 80 percent of participants appreciated the Indo-Futurism theme. Additionally, more than half of the testers expressed a desire for the development process to continue. The majority of entries came from cities like Pune, Delhi, Gujarat, Bengaluru, Mumbai, Uttar Pradesh, Haryana, Rajasthan, Tamil Nadu, and Kerala, with the average age of players being under 25.
Initially designed with a first-person perspective (FPP) mode, Indus will later introduce a third-person perspective (TPP) mode. SuperGaming plans to allow pre-registration for the game on the Google Play Store and the Apple App Store later this year. Notably, SuperGaming, known for games like MaskGun and Silly Royale, boasts significant player bases, with MaskGun reportedly having over 64 million players, and Silly Royale amassing more than 20 million players since its launch last year.
