Sony's India Hero Project Debuts Lokko for Mobile, PC, and PS5

• Lokko, a vibrant title from developer Appy Monkeys
• Created in collaboration with Sony's India Hero Project
• Lokko supports cross-play across mobile, PC, and PS5 with Dualshock integration

India’s gaming scene is gaining momentum, though it often flies under the radar. We’ve spotlighted projects like Indus Battle Royale before, pondering the trajectory of Indian game development. Now, the future looks bright with Lokko, an engaging 3D platformer set to make waves.

Lokko emerges from Sony’s India Hero Project, a program nurturing Indian developers to craft standout titles. Appy Monkeys, through this initiative, has built Lokko—a 3D platformer featuring level editors and a robust avatar creator. Players race to deliver pizzas while battling the dominant Goobol food corporation.

What sets Lokko apart? It’s fully cross-platform, supports cross-play, and leverages Dualshock functionality across all versions.

Lokko’s Dynamic Appeal

Lokko blends elements of modern gaming successes, offering character customization, level creation, and a low-poly aesthetic reminiscent of Roblox. Backed by PlayStation’s expertise, it positions itself as a compelling alternative to established platforms.

The gameplay doesn’t break new ground, but Appy Monkeys delivers a polished experience. I’m eager to see what else the India Hero Project has in store.

While Lokko’s release date remains unconfirmed beyond this year, check out another stellar indie title, Dredge, a cross-platform eldritch fishing simulator from Black Salt Games.
