And so far, I haven’t noticed jarring glitches that spoil the gameplay experience.

Console players can get up to 4K resolution on the PS5 and Xbox Series X. In both the cases, the game ran well, albeit with adjustments made accordingly.
I tested the game on a top-of-the-line Lenovo Legion 7 (Ryzen 9 5900H, RTX 3080) as well as another entry-level system with a GTX 1060 as well as a 10th Core i5 processor. Cricket 22 Performanceįor a sports title, Cricket 22 runs flawlessly smooth. There’s no split-screen multiplayer mode, which I think is a miss. However, I could only play a few matches, most of which saw the opponent bowing out in the middle. Lastly, if you want to play against real cricket fans, there’s an online mode available. There is certainly room for improvement here. Most annoying though is the commentary that seems to have no relation with what’s happening on the field, and can be best described as discouraging.įor example, I once hit five boundaries in five balls leaving the last ball as a dot, and the commentary hailed the bowler for “bowling such a great over without giving away many runs.” And then there's favour for the AI team always even if you took 3 runs over a misfielding, the fielders get a praise for stopping the boundary. There’s no dialogue audible between the captains or players during the cutscenes, and the ambient field cheering or directions from the players seem repetitive. You still get to toss with an oddly shaped “Big Ants” coin with no sense of heads or tails, and its still levitates on the pitch. Sadly, the budget limitations are visible elsewhere. You start off with an agent, train at the nets, play club cricket, look after your physicality, and make your way up to the bigger teams – from the IPL equivalent of a tournament in Australia to their national team. In Cricket 22, Big Ants Studio has tried to get the FIFA-levels of immersion in the career mode. Cricket 19 had one too and it was fun enough. In sports titles, having a self-centered career mode is normal – be it FIFA, PES, NFL, or even the Formula 1 game, they all have a career mode that revolves around you.

On paper, there are lots of things that Big Ants Studio has done right and for cricket fans, that’s enough to borrow at least an hour of their life every day on the PC or console.īut is that enough? Join me in my account of wearing the pads and heading for the pitch, because this inning matters. Because after waiting for two years, it is normal to expect a game that makes the older one look, well, old! But sadly, I still find myself devoting more time to Cricket 19 than the new one. You may have already sensed the disappointment in my tone.
