Gupta Gunfire has emerged as India's most popular homegrown first-person shooter (FPS) game, blending fast-paced combat with rich cultural references. Developed by Mumbai-based studio Rajputi Games in 2021, this mobile shooter has captured the imagination of 12.7 million+ Indian gamers.
The game features unique Indian elements rarely seen in global FPS titles - from weapon designs inspired by Mughal artillery to maps set in iconic locations like the Red Fort and Hampi ruins. This localization strategy has proven wildly successful, with Gupta Gunfire dominating India's mobile gaming charts for 18 consecutive months.
Gupta Gunfire offers three primary game modes:
8-player free-for-all combat across three uniquely Indian maps. Players spawn with traditional weapons like the Talwar sword and must scavenge for modern firearms. The twist? Health packs are replaced with Panakam (traditional Indian drink) that restores 30% health.
100-player battle royale set in a shrinking map of ancient India. Special features include:
Single-player story mode recreating India's freedom struggle through 12 missions. Players control fictional freedom fighter Captain Arjun Singh as he battles British forces using both period weapons and experimental Indian tech.
Gupta Gunfire stands out for its deep cultural integration:
Full localization in 12 Indian languages including Hindi, Tamil, Telugu, Bengali, and Marathi. Voice acting features prominent Indian actors, with character dialogues blending modern slang with historical references.
