Indus, the Indian-made battle royale shooter, surpasses five million Android downloads and 100,000 iOS downloads within two months of its launch. This follows a successful international playtest in Manila and a Google Play Best Made in India Game 2024 award win.
SuperGaming, the developer, aims to establish Indus as a leading Indian gaming title, surpassing competitors like FAU-G: Domination. The Manila playtest at the YGG Play Summit provided valuable feedback from international esports players.
Further bolstering its esports ambitions, SuperGaming launched the Clutch India Movement, featuring the Indus International Tournament. Running from October 2024 to February 2025, this tournament boasts a ₹2.5 crore (approximately $31,000 USD) prize pool.
Significant Achievement, Future Growth Potential
While Indus's five million downloads are impressive, they fall slightly short of the initial ten million pre-registrations. However, pre-registration numbers often don't fully translate to actual downloads. The relatively low iOS download count suggests a need to further penetrate that market segment.
Despite this, the rapid progression with international playtests, an esports tournament, and other initiatives demonstrates SuperGaming's ambitious plans for Indus's future development.
