STRIKE WORLD Game Is Now Available In India
STRIKE WORLD delivers a fast-paced slingshot action RPG experience, combining simple controls with dynamic multiplayer gameplay. Players pull and release characters to battle enemies, resulting in engaging, skill-based gameplay that is fun both solo and with friends and family.
Built on the success of MONSTER STRIKE, which has achieved 65 million downloads in Japan, MIXI aims to replicate a similar scale and popularity in India. The game has been optimized for Indian users, featuring smoother onboarding, an intuitive UI, and a balanced progression system, making it accessible to both new and experienced gamers.
Its strong anime-inspired design and upcoming collaborations with Japanese IP holders and Indian companies in the anime industry further enhance its appeal, especially among India’s growing base of anime enthusiasts.
Koki Kimura, President, Representative Director, and CEO of MIXI and Executive Producer of STRIKE WORLD said, “MONSTER STRIKE is an IP that has grown with the support of its large user base in Japan. For this game’s launch in India, we have taken care to preserve the core gameplay experience while optimizing it for the local market. The Indian market is expected to grow due to its large population and increasing rate of smartphone adoption, so we will build on our operational and marketing expertise to establish a sustainable business foundation”.
He further added, “In the Indian market, where continued growth is expected due to its population scale and increasing smartphone penetration, we aim to accumulate operational and marketing expertise and establish a sustainable business foundation.”
