Bengaluru (Karnataka) [India], April 21: KRAFTON India is strengthening its commitment to shaping the future of India's gaming industry by welcoming six startups into the second cohort of the KRAFTON India Gaming Incubator (KIGI). Building on the momentum of its successful inaugural batch, KIGI has expanded its cohort from four to six startups, extending its reach to emerging gaming hubs like Kolkata and Madurai, among others, reinforcing its mission to nurture a nationwide ecosystem of world-class game developers. KIGI supports emerging game development talent in India through mentorship programs spanning six months to a year and financial assistance of up to $150,000, empowering studios to create best-in-class games and drive industry innovation. Meet the cohorts: * Kleanup Games, an indie studio based in Madurai and led by Studio Director Jaiwanth Shanmugam, is developing CHROMADI, a fast-paced, retro-inspired shoot-'em-up centered on colour-mixing mechanics and high-score action. Backed by original music from Audio Director Niranjan Nair and produced by Nandini Nachiar, the game blends old-school arcade energy with a modern edge and is slated for release in 2026. * Advaita Interactive, founded by Judhajit Sarkar and based in Kolkata, is developing Inspectorium, a hidden object detective game set in a steampunk-inspired version of Victorian-era Calcutta. With episodic cases, real-time AI-powered interrogations, and immersive puzzle-solving, the game is set to release across mobile, PC, and VR platforms between 2025 and 2026. * Singular Scheme, a Mumbai-founded indie studio led by Ahad Oomerbhoy, along with a team of eight, is developing Frontier Paladin, an RPG with action-tower defense elements set in a cursed battlefield filled with divine relics and ancient foes. * Smash Head Studio, a Bangalore-based developer with over a decade of experience, is gearing up to launch Cricket Rivals, a fast-paced, real-time multiplayer mobile game that reimagines the spirit of cricket with quick, competitive matches designed for global appeal. * Unwind Games, a mobile studio based in Hyderabad and founded by industry veterans Jayant Shukla and Khozema Abuwala, is developing BaoBao's Journey, a heartfelt casual puzzle game starring a lovable panda on a quest to build his dream mountain lodge. Designed to be both soothing and satisfying, the game combines thoughtful puzzles with cozy customization, offering players a relaxing and emotionally rich experience. * Ginger Games, a studio from New Delhi founded in 2024 by Shrey Mishra, Sumit Batheja, and Piyush Kumar, is developing Monkey Mayhem, a vibrant hybrid-casual action-adventure mobile game set in the quirky 'Monkey Universe.' Featuring fast-paced auto-shooter gameplay, dynamic biomes, crafting and combat, and a rich narrative, the game follows a brave monkey named Piklu on a chaotic mission to rescue his friends and is slated for release in February 2026. KIGI's new cohort follows the completion of its inaugural incubation cycle, during which several gaming startups wrapped up their development phases. These startups are spanning locations from Kohima to Gurgaon, and New Delhi to Bangalore are now preparing to formally launch games built under the KIGI programme. The first cohort of the KRAFTON India Gaming Incubator (KIGI) is making waves in the Indian gaming landscape. ReDimension Games is already available on Steam, while Shura Games and Dunali Games have successfully soft-launched their titles on Play Store, marking major milestones in their journey.
