Indus Battle Royale developer shares details around pre-registrations

Indus Playtest 3 details come almost a month after the developer published the Google Play Store listing of the game for pre-registrations. The developer reiterated that pre-registrations for Apple iOS and iPadOS would “follow soon” on the App Store. SuperGaming also revealed that it is about to cross the 1 million pre-registrations mark on the Play Store. For some context, the game is set to be released on smartphones, PC, and consoles.

Community Playtest 3

Coming back to Playtest 3, SuperGaming shared an extensive list of changes that testers can expect. This includes “better graphics and smoother visuals” along with new playable characters called “paragons”, new paragon skins, weapons, and more. Indus fans and battle royale players can expect improvements to the map and mini map along with the ability to customise controls, a new weapon test facility, fresh features like “Slide”, and supply drops. Like the previous two Community Playtests, SuperGaming has shared a form for interested gamers to sign up to try to grab one of the 50 available slots.

SuperGaming is also partnering with Surat-based developer XSQUADS Tech to offer its upcoming title, Scarfall 2.0 for the playtest. Like the previous playtests, gamers can directly share their feedback with the developers. SuperGaming will also offer an “Indus Battle Kit” to all Playtest participants, along with “a collection of collector-grade memorabilia”.

Roby John, the CEO and co-founder of the company, shared a statement as part of the announcement. John said, “To celebrate the community’s love and support for Indus, we felt that it’s time to take it to India’s fastest-growing city, Surat.” He went on to add, “Our previous playtests had us get valuable feedback from players in Pune and Bengaluru which helped us make a better game, now it’s time to see what some of the more hardcore battle royale players in the country think.”
