Krafton has rolled out the 5.1 update for Real Cricket. The latest update introduces three new gameplay experiences, including the Relive RCPL mode, free access to the World Cup 11 Tournament for a limited period, and an India Tour of England in-game event scheduled for July.

Krafton India and Nautilus Mobile said the update, available from today (June 26), is designed to bring recent cricket events into the game by allowing players to recreate match moments, participate in tournaments, and experience live cricket tours through in-game content.Talking about the update, Anuj Sahani, Head – KIGI and Director of Publishing, Krafton India, said: “5.1 is about keeping players in the middle of cricket season, even when the season is technically over. Relive RCPL gives you real match situations - the same pressure, the same bowling attacks - and lets you play them your way. That's the kind of experience we want Real Cricket to own, and our job is to make sure that when something big happens in cricket, Real Cricket players feel and engage with it first.”
