Players are free to customise their fighting with multiple weapons and abilities as they mix agility, magic, and pure brute strength. Additionally, Multiplayer extends most of its features to allow the player to travel with him or alone. The author of the story is Amish Tripathi, author of the Shiva Trilogy and Ram Chandra series.It promises a rich tale of duty, betrayal, and ancient power where player choices shape the outcome of both character and world. “This is our chance to bring Indian itihaas to life in a modern, engaging format,” said Tripathi. “We’re building something which goes ahead while thrilling today’s gamers.
The Vision Behind Tara Gaming
For the maker of Tara Gaming, it is to merge the legacy of storytelling from India with AAA-grade game development. Amitabh Bachchan said, “Gaming is what comes alive in the stories for upcoming generations. This is our resource to tell our culture and imagination to the world." Co-founder Nouredine Abboud added, "With Mr. Bachchan and Amish on board, this becomes more than a game; it becomes a vision to redefine how India appears in global gaming."
