What Is The Global Indus Battle Royale Release Date?
October 16, 2024, is the Indus Battle Royale release date. It will be available on Android and iOS via the Google Play Store and App Store, respectively. SuperGaming intends to release the title on consoles and PC but they will most likely wait to see how the Indus performs on mobile before moving forward.
After being revealed in January 2022, Indus has gradually attracted players. SuperGaming recently hosted a nationwide grassroots esports tournament titled Indus Inferno which Team MOGGERS won. In August, the open beta for Indus Battle Royale was released. The unique battle royale game has received numerous updates after noting the player feedback and suggestions.
Following the Indus Battle Royale release date announcement, Co-founder and CEO of SuperGaming Roby John highlighted the game’s indo-futuristic appeal. Their “vision with Indus has always been to showcase Indian Art and Culture through unique characters, weapons, and stories rooted in Indian heritage.” Moreover, he thanked the Indus BR beta players for their invaluable feedback as it was crucial for fine-tuning the aspects of the title.
Although the game showed a lot of promise during the beta, it didn’t quite hit the mark with fans. There were a few gameplay hurdles as mentioned in our Indus Battle Royale first impressions article.

- Cosmium Clutch: Another way to win the game. Instead of being the last team standing, players can collect Cosmium that spawns in the last circle of Nirvana. Making the ‘Cosmium Clutch’ takes a few seconds, so be watchful about enemies nearby.
- Grudge: This game mechanic enables players to foster a personal vendetta against an enemy player. Players can press a button to declare a Grudge on the enemy that eliminated them.
- Futuristic weapons: The Mythwalker Arsenal consists of multiple high-tech and futuristic weapons. Among them is Krodh, a weapon that can switch from shotgun to sniper mode.
- Characters and world designs inspired by Indian culture: The diversity of India is reflected in the characters of Indus Battle Royale. Moreover, its world and lore are heavily inspired by the nation’s mythology.
