Kurukshetra: Ascension, a captivating card battle game rooted in Indian mythology, has surged past one million players since its 2023 launch! Discover the excitement on Google Play and the iOS App Store.
This Indian-developed title showcases the nation's burgeoning game development scene. Drawing inspiration from the epic scale of Indian mythology (familiar to fans of Asura's Wrath), Kurukshetra: Ascension offers thrilling multiplayer PvP battles and a captivating single-player campaign featuring demons, warriors, and mythical beasts. Globally available on Google Play and the iOS App Store, the game continues to expand its reach.
While perhaps less familiar in the West than Greek or Norse mythology, the rich tapestry of ancient Indian epics provides a fertile ground for captivating characters and epic conflicts, perfectly embodied in Kurukshetra. The game is constantly evolving; Season Eleven, "Journey to the Himalayas," introduces a new hero, Himavat, along with new weapons and more!
A Celebration of Culture
The focus on Indian culture in many locally-developed games (like Indus) is a testament to the power of gaming in promoting cultural heritage. This mirrors the successful integration of Lunar New Year events in Chinese games, highlighting gaming's ability to effectively communicate and celebrate diverse cultures.
With over fourteen million matches played across all game modes and millions of hours spent in PvP, Kurukshetra: Ascension has clearly resonated with players worldwide.
