Bangalore Brawl Battalion is India's first homegrown multiplayer action game that combines fast-paced combat with unique Indian cultural elements. Developed by a Bangalore-based studio, this game has taken the Indian gaming community by storm since its release in 2022.
The game features 12 unique Indian characters, each representing different regions and cultures of India. From the fierce Rajput warrior to the agile Kerala martial artist, players can choose characters that resonate with their heritage while engaging in 5v5 team battles across iconic Indian locations.
With its vibrant visuals, culturally relevant content, and competitive gameplay, Bangalore Brawl Battalion has become a symbol of India's growing gaming industry. The game regularly hosts tournaments with prizes up to ₹50 lakhs, attracting both casual and professional gamers across the country.
Bangalore Brawl Battalion offers three primary game modes:
Teams compete to control three strategic points on the map. The first team to hold all points for 60 seconds wins. Popular maps include:
Free-for-all battle where the first player to reach 25 kills wins. Special power-ups like the "Desi Boost" (temporary invincibility) and "Jugaad Grenade" (creates temporary cover) appear randomly on the map.
Unique mode where teams must collect cultural artifacts scattered across the map while fighting opponents. Artifacts include:
Master the "Desi Dash" move by combining a forward roll with an immediate attack. This technique is especially effective in narrow streets of maps like Chandni Chowk (Delhi) where close-quarters combat is frequent.
Bangalore Brawl Battalion stands out for its deep localization efforts that go beyond mere language translation:
