Sony India's Lokko: New Mobile, PC, PS5 Game

Lokko, a vibrant new 3D platformer from Appy Monkeys in collaboration with Sony's India Hero Project, is set to shake up the gaming scene. This India-based developer has crafted a game boasting cross-play functionality across mobile, PC, and PS5, complete with DualShock support on all platforms.

India's burgeoning game development scene often goes under the radar, but Lokko, alongside titles like Indus Battle Royale, hints at a bright future. Developed through Sony's India Hero Project, an incubator supporting Indian developers, Lokko offers a unique blend of features. Players will deliver pizzas, battling the Goobol food corporation, while enjoying extensive level editors and a deep avatar creator.

What truly sets Lokko apart is its seamless cross-platform experience. Cross-play and DualShock controller support across mobile, PC, and PS5 create an inclusive and accessible gaming environment.

Lokko cleverly incorporates elements reminiscent of successful modern games. The character customization, level creation tools, and low-poly aesthetic evoke titles like Roblox, but with the backing of PlayStation, it possesses the potential to become a compelling alternative.

The gameplay, while not revolutionary, is polished and promising. Appy Monkeys' vision is exciting, and Lokko's success will undoubtedly shed further light on the capabilities of the India Hero Project.

While a precise release date is yet to be announced (though expected sometime this year), Lokko is certainly one to watch. In the meantime, check out another excellent cross-platform indie title: Dredge, the eldritch fishing simulator from Black Salt Games!
