Playing cricket in a tight alley can often be more thrilling than on a traditional field, especially in India. An indie Indian studio, 5th Ocean Studios, has launched their latest cricket game, *Gully Gangs: Street Cricket*, into Open Beta on Android. This game brings the vibrant chaos of Indian street cricket to your mobile device.
Not Your Typical Cricket Simulation
*Gully Gangs: Street Cricket* is a unique 4v4 multiplayer game that sets you right in the heart of Indian gullies—narrow alleys bustling with life. This is the first-ever street cricket game to feature a 4v4 format, adding a new twist to the sport. Experience the thrill of rooftop catches, dodging scooters, and even dealing with nosy uncles who shout at you for breaking windows. For those who prefer a more personal challenge, the game also offers a 1v1 mode.
The game enhances the fun with power moves and real-time voice chat, allowing you to communicate, sledge opponents, drop emojis during matches, and execute some cheeky tricks. The settings are authentic Indian neighborhoods, complete with live street action, where you'll navigate broken stumps, makeshift pitches, and unpredictable bounces off uneven walls.
Customization is a big part of *Gully Gangs: Street Cricket*. You can create your gang, deck them out in funky outfits, and unlock various skins to stand out in the gully.
Gully Gangs: Street Cricket Is Now in Open Beta
5th Ocean Studios is not stopping at the current features. They are planning numerous updates including new street maps, fresh outfits, regular events, clan wars, and even an esports mode in the future. Expect leaderboards, daily and weekly challenges, and exciting gang vs. gang matchups.
Currently, *Gully Gangs: Street Cricket* is available only on Android, but the studio aims to expand to iOS and Steam platforms. They are also working on full controller support and cross-platform play. If you're eager to dive into the action, you can download the game from the Google Play Store.
