So, there’s this new game called FAU-G: Domination, and it’s already making big waves. At the Indian Game Developer Conference (IGDC) 2024 in Hyderabad, nearly 1,000 people got a chance to try it out, and they couldn’t stop talking about it. This is the latest game in the FAU-G series, developed by Dot9 Games in Mumbai. If you didn’t know, the FAU-G games are already super popular, with over 40 million downloads from their earlier versions.
Playtest Was a Success and Why Everyone Loved It
The playtest was a huge success. Players said the game ran really smooth, even on low-end phones, which is a big deal for mobile gamers in India.
Out of all the game modes, the Arms Race mode was the favorite for about 70% of the players, beating other options like Team Deathmatch and 1v1. People also loved how the guns felt in the game—about 70% rated the gunplay as “good” or even “excellent.”
But hey, no game is perfect, right? Some players (around 10%) mentioned issues with hitboxes, and 8% noticed overheating problems. The developers are already working on fixing these before the game’s release, which is planned for early 2025.

Developers Future Plans for FAU-G: Domination
This event wasn’t just about playing the game; it was a big moment for Indian gaming too. The shooter genre has around 500 million players in India, and FAU-G: Domination is aiming to grab a chunk of that audience. Events like this playtest help make sure the game is as good as it can be when it officially launches.
The developers at Dot9 Games are also planning more playtests soon. They’re really serious about listening to the community and making improvements based on what players say. That’s pretty cool, right?
Pre-Register and Get Exclusive Rewards
Here’s something exciting: pre-registrations for the FAU-G: Domination game are already live on the Google Play Store for Android. If you sign up early, you’ll get something called the Beast Collection. It’s a special set of in-game goodies inspired by tigers (India’s national animal). You’ll get things like gun skins, banners, stickers, and other fun stuff. But hurry, because these rewards won’t be available after the game launches
Well, FAU-G: Domination is shaping up to be a game changer for Indian gaming. With such strong feedback and a dedicated team, it looks like this game is going to be a big hit when it officially drops next year.
