Indus, the Indian-made battle royale shooter, has surpassed five million Android downloads and 100,000 iOS downloads in just two months. This follows its success at the Google Play Awards, where it won "Best Made in India Game 2024," and a successful international playtest in Manila.
This significant achievement positions Indus as a leading contender in the Indian gaming market, challenging competitors like FAU-G: Domination. The Manila playtest, held during the YGG Play Summit, provided valuable feedback from international esports players.
Further solidifying its esports ambitions, SuperGaming launched the Clutch India Movement, featuring the Indus International Tournament. This tournament, running from October 2024 to February 2025, boasts a substantial INR 2.5 crore (approximately $31,000) prize pool.
Impressive Growth, Future Potential
While the 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, and the relatively lower iOS numbers suggest a need for further market penetration in that sector.
Despite this, SuperGaming's swift implementation of international playtests and an esports tournament showcases ambitious growth plans for Indus. The company's proactive approach suggests a strong commitment to the game's development and future success.
