A year ago Don Bradman rocked up on Xbox One with a cricket title that promised the world. Unfortunately it didn’t deliver the goods. Now though, just over 12 months own and the Don is back with Don Bradman Cricket 17. Is this now the best cricket title available for purchase?
Well, we won’t know that until we get to go hands on with Cricket 17 but seeing as there is a severe lack of bat and ball titles available on Xbox One, chances are it’ll be right up there with the best.
Available to download right now on Xbox One, Don Bradman Cricket 17 is priced at $59.99. At time of writing we’re not seeing it in the UK, but hope that will soon change. With a revolutionary control system, precision to the play and the chance to ping off all manner of cricket shot and bowl, Cricket 17 will surely appeal to those who like white. A deep career mode should bring enough content to keep you happy, whilst full motion capture and the inclusion of female cricketeers for the first time in all modes, tick all the right boxes.
If you’re residing in the North American region then you should be giving the Xbox Games Store a visit right now and picking Don’s latest innings up. The rest of us will have to wait a little while though. We will of course let you know as soon as the game makes an appearance elsewhere.
