Kurukshetra: Ascension, a captivating card battler drawing inspiration from Indian mythology, has soared past one million players since its 2023 release! Dive into the epic world of gods, demons, and cosmic beasts in this thrilling blend of PvP duels and a captivating single-player campaign. Available now on Google Play and the iOS App Store.

This Indian-made game showcases the nation's burgeoning game development scene. Based on the vast and rich tapestry of Indian mythology—a scale comparable to that of Asura's Wrath—Kurukshetra: Ascension offers a unique and engaging experience. Its global reach demonstrates the universal appeal of compelling storytelling and strategic gameplay.

While Western audiences might be more familiar with Greek or Norse mythology, the epic tales of India's ancient heroes are equally grand and inspiring. The game continues to evolve; Season Eleven, "Journey to the Himalayas," introduces a new hero, Himavat, along with exciting new weapons and more!

The game's success reflects a growing trend of incorporating local culture into game development. Similar to the Lunar New Year events in many Chinese-developed games, Kurukshetra: Ascension effectively showcases and promotes Indian culture to a global audience.
