Talking to The Indian Express, nCore Games CEO and co-founder said that the game is a tribute to Indian Army and the faujis who fight on the borders for security of the nation.

While talking about the game, Gonda said that every first person game is based on themes which connect with the local audience and thus creating a game for the Indian audience meant the themes had to be local that would appeal globally, hence they chose the Galwan Valley theme to be their first episode.
