Ah, baseball. The thrill of the bat's swing, the crack of wood against leather, and the aroma of questionable hotdogs. Is there anything more quintessentially American than the baseball diamond? As someone from the UK, I can't say for sure, but I know many of us dream of managing our own team in the major leagues. Enter Bitball Baseball, an upcoming super low-res baseball simulator that lets you do just that.
Don't expect high-resolution graphics from this game; Bitball Baseball embraces a charmingly small-scale aesthetic. You'll oversee the entire field and a crowd of pixelated fans as your players compete against rival teams, dashing for bases after each hit.
When it comes to features, Bitball Baseball offers everything you'd expect from a fantasy sports simulator. You can trade players, customize your team and lineup, construct a world-class stadium, and cultivate a loyal fanbase (or maximize profits with ticket prices). Opt for the premium version to personalize your players' names and appearances and design your own custom team.
Yes, baseball simulators may not be as mainstream as football or American football games, but the universal appeal of this sport is undeniable. I commend Duckfoot Games for their transparency regarding the content available in both the free and premium versions of their game, which they clearly outline on the storefront.
Mark your calendars—Bitball Baseball is set to launch on March 12th, just a few weeks away! Be sure to pre-register on Android or iOS to start hitting home runs.
