Rugby League Live 4 debuts at #1 in Australia and New Zealand

Rugby League Live 4, the latest in the series from Big Ant Studios and Tru Blu Entertainment, launched last week to great acclaim from both the press and players.

We’re happy to report that the game also debuted in the #1 spot in both Australia and New Zealand… and launched at #4 in the UK. In nabbing the spot, Rugby League Live 4 unseated Crash N-Sane Trilogy, which has been firmly glued to the top of the charts for some weeks now.

Thanks to all the Rugby League fans that have supported the sport, and game on!

Don Bradman Cricket 17 now available on PC

Big Ant Studios has today announced that the most realistic cricket game ever made, Don Bradman Cricket 17, is now available on PC via Steam.

Released on console last month, the game boasts an “unprecedented suite of customisation options,” and has been hailed as “the best cricket experience yet.” Players can jump into the career mode to take a young player from club cricket all the way to captaining his or her country (it is also the first cricket game of all time to have female players and competitions). Alternatively, players can jump into the game’s Cricket Academy, where they can build their local teams, cricket fields and competitions to recreate their own club league.

“We made customisation the core of the experience with this game,” Big Ant CEO, Ross Symons, said. “It’s always amazing to see what our dedicated community comes up with, and between the stadium, player, and logo creators, every player can truly make Don Bradman Cricket 17 their own experience.”

Players can also look forward to robust post-launch support, with patches planned to continue to update the game according to player feedback.

“We have one of the most vocal, positive communities in sporting games,” Symons said. “We see Don Bradman 17 as a platform that we’ll continue to refine and build on in the weeks ahead. The response to the game has already been so positive; we’re very proud to be able to support cricket in video games for the fans of the sport.”

The game can be purchased from Steam here http://store.steampowered.com/app/464850/

Story

You control Jaxx, jester extraordinaire, in search of the legendary Druid Orbs, source of unimaginable power. Thrown into the mix is an invading clown army who are terrorizing the denizens of the realm while on their own search for the orbs. The clowns have kidnapped Jaxx’s companion, the lady Comedia, to try wring out any information she might have.

Test your resolve against a multitude of formidable enemies. Flow from attack to counter, from dodge to hammer throw. Smash, bash and hurl your battle hammer in a maelstrom of annihilation as waves of enemies charge at you from outhouse spawn points.

Combos

Killer combo counts are the secret to a high level score. Keep stringing attacks, counters, supermoves and takedowns to create combos. The higher Jaxx’s combo, the faster his Superbar is charged. You must strategically use one of your three supermoves on specific enemies, making sure you are prepared for the boss’!
