Graham Gooch World Class Cricket has many different versions available: • Allan Border Cricket: The Australian release of the game. • Battle for the Ashes: A cut down version made specifically for the 1993 Ashes Test series. • Jonty Rhodes II - World Class Cricket: The South African release of the game. • Brian Lara Cricket: An edition that was initially only available from the Game chain of stores in the UK. • Brian Lara Cricket '96: An updated version with substantially the same gameplay, and English County sides. Released as Shane Warne Cricket in Australia - with state teams replacing county sides. There were two updates for the game: • Graham Gooch's Second Innings: This update disk required the original game to work, it contained all the updated statistics from 1994. The expansion also added the ability to play "classic" matches such as the 1990 test where Graham Gooch scored his highest score, 333. The ability to play as an English county team is added. • Graham Gooch World Class Cricket - Test Match Special Edition: This version of the game combines the original game with the 2nd Innings update.

A Jaguar conversion of the original game was in development by Williams Brothers Developments and was shown at SCES '94 in a non-playable state. It was planned for release by Telegames in the first quarter of 1995, then moved to Q2 1995, but Atari Corporation exited the home video game console market and the port was never completed.
