New Delhi, September 8^th, 2023: KRAFTON India unveiled an exclusive documentary video – From Vision To Valor: Creating The Indian Faction. The documentary provides a captivating look at the creation of the Indian Faction in Road To Valor: Empires.

The Indian Faction within Road To Valor: Empires is a first of its kind creation where localized gameplay is brought to users on mobile, inspired by India’s rich history and culture. The film closely showcases the team at KRAFTON India embarking on a creative endeavor to produce the Indian Faction. From collectively designing and aligning on the aesthetics to then co-developing the narrative with the help of the South Korean team to introducing Indian culture and elements to their global counterparts and recording voiceovers, the film captures every detail of thoughtful curation that went into bringing users an unparalleled mobile gameplay experience.

Supari Studios, an independent and fresh creative content agency, played a pivotal role in capturing the essence of this creative journey. The result is an honest and emotionally resonant documentary that provides an inside look into nuances of game development.

“We are incredibly excited to share this behind-the-scenes documentary with our players and fans,” said Srinjoy Das, Associate Director of Marketing at KRAFTON India. “Creating the Indian Faction was a labour of love, and we hope this documentary will not only showcase the hard work and dedication of our talented team but also deepen the connection between the game, and our players. We are immensely proud to have documented the seamless synergy between KRAFTON’s India and South Korean teams in bringing this project to life and are grateful to Supari Studios for their exceptional work in capturing this journey.”

Passionate gamer and Account Director at Supari Studios, Mrinal Chawla, expressed his excitement about the project, stating, “It was an absolute pleasure to work on this project, and the passion within the KRAFTON team was palpable from the very beginning. We found inspiration in the meticulous attention to detail, thoughtful curation, and the unwavering effort put forth by the KRAFTON team.”

Nisha Vasudevan, the director of this documentary, said “When we set out to capture the process of how Indian characters were created by the combined efforts of Krafton and Dreamotion, we realised how much hard work goes in to making something of this magnitude. It truly is something unique. This comes out better when you see in action than in words”
