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

Indus, the Indian-made battle royale shooter, has achieved a remarkable milestone: over five million Android downloads and 100,000 iOS downloads within just two months of its launch. This success follows a Google Play Best Made in India Game 2024 award and a successful international playtest in Manila.

SuperGaming, the developer behind Indus, aims to establish the game as a leading force in Indian gaming, surpassing competitors like FAU-G: Domination. The Manila playtest at the YGG Play Summit provided valuable feedback and exposure.

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 substantial INR 2.5 crore (approximately $31,000) prize pool.

Significant Achievement, Continued Growth:

While Indus's five million downloads fall slightly short of its initial ten million pre-registrations (a common occurrence), the figures remain impressive. The lower iOS download count suggests a need for further market penetration in that sector.

Despite this, SuperGaming's proactive approach—including international playtests and an esports tournament—demonstrates ambitious plans for Indus's future development.
