Ashes Cricket 2013 Gameplay Details Revealed

This summer, 505 games will put gamers in control of the ultimate rivalry in Test cricket with Ashes Cricket 2013. To be released for the start of the 2013 Investec Ashes Series, Ashes Cricket 2013offers unique and realistic features for cricket fans and gamers alike. Whether playing on Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, Wii U or PC, Ashes Cricket 2013 promises to deliver dynamic gameplay that adds variety to each match. Players will have to adapt to varying and altering pitches; whether it’s a green seaming wicket or deteriorating fifth day pitch susceptible to spin and bounce. Weather forecasts will also change, altering the course of the match; overcast conditions will be more conducive to swing, while sunny days are a batsman’s paradise.


Ashes Cricket 2013includes a brand new engine creating a truly authentic gaming experience. Batsmen have 360 degree control over shot placement, requiring impeccable placement and timing to build an innings. A new line and length bowling system gives bowlers the tools to set plans for batsmen throughout a day’s play and players have complete freedom to set a field of their choice. For those who prefer to be led however, there are options for intelligent automatic field placement. Connoisseurs of the game will be able to play the complete 2013 Investec Ashes Series, with official England and Australia teams, however those more interested in the short form of the game can take on the rest of the world in limited overs tournaments and leagues.

“We are delighted to be able to announce some of the key features for Ashes Cricket 2013,” commented Ralph Pitt-Stanley, General Manager for UK & Export at 505 Games. “This game has been created with real cricket fans and players in mind. The new engine allows players to mimic a cricketers most important attribute, his technique.”

Currently in development for Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, Wii U and PC, Ashes Cricket 2013 will be made available from 21st June 2013. Electronic Theatre will keep you updated with all the latest details on Ashes Cricket 2013 and other forthcoming titles from 505 Games.
