The PM highlighted the country’s talent and potential to become a global leader in gaming
Mumbai: Made-in-India shooter FAU-G: Domination crossed over one million pre-registrations on the Google Play Store for Android in about three weeks. This makes it the fastest game to hit the one million milestone for Nazara Publishing. Pre-registrations for the game went live earlier in the month from September 5 with a gameplay trailer and the FAU-G: Domination World Premiere event featuring nCore Group and Dot9 Games mentor Akshay Kumar. You can check out the after movie of the FAU-G: Domination World Premiere below:
Nazara Publishing, India’s first turnkey publishing platform, has undertaken a marketing campaign to raise awareness among Indian gamers to pre-register for FAU-G: Domination. These include partnering with some of India’s top content creators and influencers as well as offering generous pre-registration bonuses.
“Hitting this milestone so quickly is a powerful testament to the growing demand for high-quality, Made-in-India content,” said Vishal Gondal, Co-Founder of nCore Games.
“Indian gamers are a discerning audience, and their overwhelming support shows that they’re hungry for experiences that reflect their culture and identity. This early validation reinforces our belief that India is not just a consumer of global gaming content, but a creator of world-class games that resonate both at home and internationally.”
“While the Dot9 Games team is working tirelessly to make FAU-G: Domination the best it can be, a million pre-registrations is just the incentive we need to make it even better,” said Deepak Ail, Co-Founder and CEO of Dot9 Games, FAU-G: Domination’s developer. “The game is at the stage where we’re fine-tuning and deciding what features players need at launch — with some playtests before that. Stay tuned to our socials to know more.”
FAU-G: Domination is Nazara and nCore Games’ answer to Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s Independence Day call to action to the nation. He urged India’s games industry to focus on designing world-class games. He highlighted the country’s talent and potential to become a global leader in gaming.
With this in mind, the trailer entices players to win on FAU-G: Domination’s many maps, all while showcasing a variety of weapons. It also highlights multiple locations and firefights to show the scope and size of the experience Dot9 and nCore Games will bring to gamers in India and the world.

Under the mentorship of Akshay Kumar, nCore is dedicating the game to Bharat Ke Veer. Bharat Ke Veer Trust gives homage and support to India’s Bravehearts. To support the families of India’s Armed Forces Martyrs, Nazara donated Rs. 25,00,000 to Bharat Ke Veer and FAU-G: Domination will also feature specific cosmetic items such as badges, of which 100 percent of the proceeds will go towards Bharat Ke Veer.
The Bharat Ke Veer Trust is conceptualised by Akshay Kumar and implemented by the Ministry of Home Affairs, to support the families of India’s Armed Forces Martyrs.
FAU-G: Domination also had its second playtest last week. This had players accessing the latest build of the game and playing with fellow community members. Player feedback has played a pivotal role in shaping FAU-G: Domination, ensuring that the game evolves in response to the community’s input.
During these multiple playtests, players had the opportunity to experience the game early and provide detailed feedback on everything from gameplay mechanics to design elements. Their insights have been instrumental in refining key aspects of the game, from improving weapon balance to enhancing map layouts and user interface.
By listening closely to players, the development team has made significant improvements and adjustments to deliver a more immersive and engaging experience. As FAU-G: Domination approaches launch, Nazara, nCore Games, and Dot9 remain committed to evolving the game with our community at the heart of every update and decision.
