Bengaluru-based gaming startup Exiles Interactives has raised $355,000 in a pre-seed round led by Chimera VC, with participation from Warmup Ventures, IndigoEdge, and angel investor Dhruv Vohra, along with existing shareholder Sourav Gupta.
The funds will be used to further develop Centarius, the company’s browser-based gaming platform, and to strengthen its marketing and community engagement efforts. With this investment, Exiles Interactives aims to enhance Centarius’s reach among both gamers and developers.
Founded in 2023, Exiles Interactives is building a social gaming ecosystem that allows users to play mid-core titles directly in the browser, without the need for downloads or native apps. Centarius enables players to connect, compete, and engage seamlessly across devices, combining accessibility with social and competitive features.
The platform also serves as a discovery hub for independent developers, offering them visibility and distribution opportunities beyond traditional app stores. The company’s broader goal is to build a connected environment where accessibility, quality gameplay, and community interaction come together.
In the months ahead, Exiles Interactives plans to collaborate with gaming creators on YouTube, Twitch, and TikTok, and participate in international gaming events to expand Centarius’s footprint in the global browser gaming space.
