Krafton and Alchemist Games have opened pre-registrations for their upcoming mobile title Garuda Saga, a roguelike adventure promising rich lore and stunning visuals.
Through the Incubator Program which was announced last year, Krafton aims to support India-made games and developers.
Garuda seems to be the Krafton's first project under this program.
With pre-registrations now live on Google Play and the App Store, let's take a look at what we know about this immersive new RPG so far.
Step Into the Shoes of Garuda, Seeking To Reclaim A Fallen Kingdom
As evident from the mythology-inspired name, Garuda Saga will put you in the shoes of Garuda, a hero on a quest to help King Allu escape the depths of hell.
Spanning 19 chapters and up to 15 levels each, you'll wield just a bow and arrow while honing latent skills and powers.
The game promises a captivating story as Garuda seeks to reclaim his mentor's fallen kingdom and unravel the secrets of his mysterious past.
Roguelike typically focuses on gripping gameplay over plot, but Garuda Saga wants to deliver an engrossing narrative too.
Stunning Visuals And Accessible Roguelike Gameplay For All
Garuda Saga aims to appeal to both casual and hardcore gamers.
The vibrant graphics and animations are built to impress, while the roguelike gameplay promises to be intense yet accessible.
Dying simply resets a level rather than the whole game.
As Anuj Sahani, Head of Krafton Incubator Program, puts it:
"We hope players have fun exploring and shaping their destiny in a unique and richly diverse virtual world."
The plan is to transcend the roguelike genre with depth and cinematic flair.
Gamers in India can now get a taste of AAA mobile gaming, refined for their market.
Pre-Register For Exclusive Starter Pack and Alerts
By pre-registering on Google Play or the App Store, you can receive a special starter pack containing useful in-game items and perks.
This will only be available for Indian gamers once Garuda Saga goes live.
Pre-registering also signs you up for launch alerts, so you'll know the moment Garuda Saga hits the Play Store and App Store.
Krafton and Alchemist Games have not announced an official release date yet.
Bringing An Immersive Mythology-Inspired RPG To India
As Alchemist Games CEO Kipum Jun summarized:
"We aimed to transcend the typical roguelike genre by infusing it with a rich plot, depth, and visually stunning challenges."
For Indian mobile gamers craving a narrative-driven RPG, Garuda Saga promises to hit the spot with its Indian mythology inspirations and cinematic flair.
