Indus: Epic 4v4 Deathmatch Unveiled, Surpassing 11 Million Pre-Regs

Indus, the Indian-made battle royale game, adds a new 4v4 deathmatch mode and surpasses 11 million pre-registrations. While the closed beta continues, a full release date remains unannounced. The new mode joins existing battle royale features, including a unique Grudge system. Audio improvements, encompassing effects and music, are also part of the latest update.

Indus, initially revealed in 2022, has undergone several beta phases, steadily gaining popularity and pre-registrations. This growth is significant considering India's expanding mobile gaming market. The recent surge to 11 million pre-registrations, while impressive, represents a slower pace compared to previous growth spurts.

Targeting the Indian Market

The 11 million pre-registrations, though impressive, indicate a potential leveling off in growth for Indus. The last major milestone was 10 million in March. While the additional million is noteworthy, the rapid growth seen earlier has subsided.

Anticipation for Indus's public launch remains high. Despite the addition of new features, the speculated late 2023 release didn't materialize. Hopes are now set on a 2024 release, either a full launch or a public beta.
