Cricket 24 Announced
Cricket 24 promises an improved Ashes atmosphere, with Ashe's press conferences and bespoke Ashes commentary to accompany the matches. The all-new fielding has been described as a “complete overhaul” of the existing system.
A new mode called Pro Team will allow players to build cricket dream teams of global superstars to compete in challenges and play online, and appears inspired by EA’s success with FIFA Ultimate Team. Cricket 24 will support cross-play multiplayer, and those who buy the PS4 or Xbox One versions will be able to upgrade to the current generation version if and when necessary.
The passion and excitement shown by our fans at the prospect of another game being released before the upcoming Ashes has been overwhelming, said Big Ant CEO Ross Symons in a statement. We’ve been working incredibly hard with cricket boards all over the world to bring what is the deepest, most realistic video game representation of the sport ever.
