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

Author : Finn Mar 05,2025

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 its success at the Google Play Awards, earning the "Best Made in India Game 2024" title, and a successful international playtest in Manila.

This significant achievement propels Indus forward in SuperGaming's ambitious plan to establish it 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 aspirations, 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 USD) prize pool.

Impressive Growth, Further Potential

While the five million downloads are impressive, they fall slightly short of the initial ten million pre-registrations. However, it's important to note that pre-registrations don't always translate directly to downloads. The lower iOS download count also suggests a need to further penetrate that market segment.

Despite this, SuperGaming's rapid progression, including international playtests and an esports tournament, showcases their ambitious vision for Indus's future.
