Indian Card Battler Ascends with Millions of Players

Feb 19,2025 Author: Ava

Kurukshetra: Ascension, a captivating card battler rooted in Indian mythology, has surged past one million players since its 2023 release! Dive into the action on Google Play and the iOS App Store.

This Indian-developed game showcases the nation's burgeoning game development potential. 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 compelling single-player campaign featuring demons, warriors, and mythical beasts. Its global reach since its 2023 launch is a testament to its appeal.

While perhaps less familiar in the West than Greek or Norse mythology, India's ancient epics are equally rich with larger-than-life heroes and warriors, forming the foundation of Kurukshetra's world. The game continues to evolve; Season Eleven, "Journey to the Himalayas," introduces Himavat, a new playable hero, along with fresh weapons and more!

The strong emphasis on Indian culture in many locally developed games (like Indus) is noteworthy. Similar to the Lunar New Year events prevalent in Chinese-developed games, Kurukshetra demonstrates the power of gaming to effectively communicate and promote cultural heritage.

With over fourteen million matches played across all modes and millions of hours spent in PvP, Kurukshetra: Ascension has clearly resonated with players.
