The decision to release on iOS is a big one for FAU-G: Domination, which offers a near-future setting focused on the titular, fictional Indian special forces group and its various distinct faces. While iOS only has a small slice by percentage (around 6%) that’s still a massive audience considering the huge population of India.
The free-for-all mode (or Lone Wolf as it’s dubbed in-game), meanwhile, is great news for players as FFA has been a constant favourite in virtually every shooter released over the past twenty years. With no teammates or objectives to worry about, it allows players to showcase their skills.
Going it alone
The slow but sure expansion of FAU-G: Domination promises to offer plenty of excitement for fans and offers an intriguing glimpse at how the Indian development space is doing. Considering how popular mobile is, I think I’ve often pondered what FAU-G’s success might mean for India’s mobile scene as a whole. So hopefully, this iOS release is an indicator that all platforms have equal importance, no matter the market share.
But it’s also a solid indicator that Dot9’s mix of Indian cultural influence and fast-paced shooter gameplay seems to have struck a chord with domestic players, they’re eager to capitalise on.
Meanwhile, if playing FAU-G: Domination has given you an itchy trigger finger that even that can’t scratch, then you’re in luck. Because mobile is absolutely chock-a-block with great shooters all over the shop. So jump in by trying out some of the picks on our list of the best shooters for iOS and Android!
