Indus picks up five million downloads and concludes first international playtest in Manila

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.

Furthermore, SuperGaming launched the Clutch India Movement, a significant esports initiative 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, Further Growth Projected

While Indus's five million downloads are impressive, they fall slightly short of the ten million pre-registrations. However, pre-registration numbers often don't fully translate to actual downloads. The lower iOS download count suggests a need for further market penetration in that segment.

Despite this, the swift implementation of international playtests and an esports tournament demonstrates SuperGaming's ambitious plans for Indus's future growth.
