The gaming industry in India is experiencing explosive growth, driven by a tech-savvy youth demographic, affordable smartphones, and widespread internet access. Recognizing its potential, the Indian government has introduced initiatives like the AVGC (Animation, Visual Effects, Gaming, and Comics) Promotion Task Force (2022) to foster skill development and innovation, while states such as Karnataka offer incentives for gaming startups. Complementing these efforts, global players are investing in local talent. Sony India’s “Hero Project” mentors’ indie developers, providing funding and PlayStation platform access to amplify homegrown titles globally. Similarly, South Korea’s Krafton has launched a multi-million-dollar incubation program in India, supporting startups with resources and expertise. These collaborations are accelerating India’s shift from a gaming consumer market to a creator hub, with the sector projected to reach $7.5 billion by 2028. Together, policy support and corporate partnerships are positioning India as a pivotal player in the global gaming ecosystem.
