Made-in-India battle royale game ‘Indus’ gets release window

PUBG and Fortnite introduce new seasons and challenges based on a theme – which in turn, loosely ties to a quote-unquote story. Games like Overwatch, on the other hand, release digital comic books and short films to introduce new characters and build upon the existing lore.

“And though you might wonder if the objective of building Indus as a battle royale was to capitalise on the hype surrounding the genre, that’s not true. Rather, the decision to make a battle royale game was logical given that our last two games – MaskGun and Silly Royale focus on social and multiplayer interactions,” reads the blog post.

For Indus, SuperGaming built a “brand new tech platform” from scratch and intent to support it post-launch with patches and events. The title is currently in deep development, and further updates on the same will be revealed shortly.

Earlier this week, the company revealed that its multiplayer mobile FPS, MaskGun had crossed the milestone of 60 million players. As part of the celebration, they announced a new 1v1 mode, a new set of agents/operators, and cosmetics – some of which were inspired by the popular Netflix series, Squid Game.
