Playing cricket in a tight alley can be more thrilling than on a traditional field, especially in India. 5th Ocean Studios, an indie Indian developer, has launched their latest cricket game, Gully Gangs: Street Cricket, into Open Beta on Android, capturing the essence of this unique experience.
Not Your Typical Cricket Simulator
Gully Gangs: Street Cricket introduces a 4v4 multiplayer format set in the heart of Indian gullies, or narrow alleys. This game marks the first-ever 4v4 street cricket simulation, complete with rooftop catches, scooters as obstacles, and even nosy uncles scolding players for breaking windows. Adding to the excitement, the game also supports 1v1 matches.
In Gully Gangs: Street Cricket, players can execute power moves and communicate with their team using voice chat. Engage in banter, sledge opponents, drop emojis during matches, and even employ some cunning strategies. The game's settings are authentic Indian neighborhoods, bustling with life, where you'll play with makeshift pitches, broken stumps, and unpredictable bounces off uneven walls.
Customization is a key feature, allowing players to build and personalize their gang with unique outfits and unlockable skins.
Gully Gangs: Street Cricket Now in Open Beta
Currently, 5th Ocean Studios is rolling out numerous updates for Gully Gangs: Street Cricket, including new street maps, fresh outfits, regular events, clan wars, and an upcoming esports mode. Players can look forward to leaderboards, daily and weekly challenges, and intense gang vs. gang showdowns.
The game is exclusively available on Android during its Open Beta phase, but plans are in place to expand to iOS and Steam. Full controller support and cross-platform play are also on the horizon. If you're eager to dive into the action, you can download Gully Gangs: Street Cricket from the Google Play Store.
