With the newest update we want to add value to the esports ecosystem with WCC3.”
The custom difficulty setting is aimed at giving players more choices to play around with. The higher the difficulty, the more chances of getting kits and higher league scores. Apart from that, the new bowling actions along with the ability to assign them is aimed at bringing more versatility to the game. With new cut scenes and full camera control to capture highlights, WCC3 will give a further immersive experience.
The World Cricket Championship series has been created by Chennai based Next Wave Multimedia Pvt.
