Ashes Cricket vs Ashes Cricket 2013
Side-by-side comparison of features, pricing, ratings, and alternatives.
Ashes Cricket is the officially licensed video game of cricket’s greatest biennial Test rivalry, the Ashes. Developed by Big Ant Studios, the game features real-world teams and players, as well as a range of game modes and customization options. Players can compete in single-player or multiplayer modes, including online co-op and competitive play.
Ashes Cricket 2013 aimed to deliver an authentic cricket experience across PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, and PC, featuring both single‑player and multiplayer modes. However, the game was plagued by critical bugs, leading to universal negative reception and its removal from sale just days after release. The publisher 505 Games issued refunds to all purchasers and cancelled further production, making the title infamous as one of the worst games of 2013.
