Manage and Build Your Team in Bitball Baseball's Ultra Low-Res Simulator

Ah, baseball. The vicious swing of the bat, the crack of wood meeting leather, and the smell of suspiciously edible hotdogs. Is there anything more American than the baseball diamond? I wouldn't know, I'm from the UK. But I do know that many of us wouldn't mind managing our own team in the major leagues, and Bitball Baseball lets you do just that.

Don't expect high-resolution Unreal Engine textures from this game, as Bitball Baseball is rendered on a charmingly small scale. You'll get a view of the entire field and a crowd of pixelated fans as your players compete against rival teams, racing for the base after every hit.

When it comes to features, Bitball Baseball offers nearly everything you'd expect from a fantasy sports simulator. You can trade players, customize your team and lineup, build a world-class stadium, and grow a dedicated fanbase (or maximize your profits with ticket pricing). Opt for the premium version to personalize the names and appearances of your players and create a custom team overall.

Yes, the baseball simulator is a niche within the more popular football and American football-type franchises, but there's no denying the universal appeal of this sport. I also appreciate developers Duckfoot Games for being transparent about what's included in the free and premium versions of their release (even listing it on the storefront!)

You can check out Bitball Baseball when it's expected to release on March 12th, just a few weeks away! Be sure to pre-register on Android or iOS and start hitting home runs.
