I didn’t get a clear sense of the camera work – I mainly saw shots from directly above. Hopefully, the final version uses a wider variety of angles. To make things more engaging, they’re planning to include animations created with motion capture technology and realistic ball movement.

I find the team-building aspect of the game really engaging. You scout and sign players, and their in-game stats reflect how they’re actually performing in real life. As you develop them, you unlock improved versions and compete in increasingly challenging divisions. You’ll find recognizable names like Cal Raleigh, Bobby Witt Jr., Mookie Betts, Juan Soto, Freddie Freeman, and even up-and-coming players like Trey Yesavage.

You can also team up with other players in Clubs, which are like groups or guilds. These Clubs let you participate in live events and tournaments, and work together to climb the leaderboards. If you just want to practice hitting, there’s also a Home Run Mode.

This baseball game looks promising! It will be available for download on the Google Play Store and App Store when it launches. While there’s no official release date yet, the app store listing suggests it will be available on March 17th, so stay tuned for updates.
