For the first time ever - The Road To The World Baseball Classic(TM)!

We are thrilled to announce that, for the first time in Out of the Park Baseball history, the authentic World Baseball Classic(TM) will be in the game! Starting this season with the World Baseball Classic(TM) Qualifiers, including the clubs and players, and continuing into next year, the real World Baseball Classic(TM) clubs, participants, schedules, and more will be here. This single-player-mode feature allows everyone to experience the best of international baseball in true OOTP fashion.

Player Development Lab 2.0!

Our popular new single-player feature gets bigger and better this season! New progress bars improve clarity and allow you to track your players even more closely. Midterm progress reports now also give you a better idea on how your players are performing and allow you to be even more hands-on. Have a guy struggling to improve his plate discipline and don’t want to keep him in the lab for any longer? You can now cut your losses and free up the space for someone else. With new game settings, refined programs, fun news from around the league, and more, experience the development lab on a whole new level!

New and improved MLB Draft!

The importance of the draft cannot be overstated and in OOTP 26 we have greatly expanded upon the experience. An all new draft combine allows you to follow top prospects, develop strong relationships with them, and see what other organizations are thinking. Get the opinion of experts on the draft class in a new Draft Pipeline. With a new Draft Central screen and even more refinements, make your choices and see how you can transform your club into a powerhouse!

Beautiful new dynamic scoreboards with in-game live information!

OOTP 26’s visuals jump off the screen and deliver great information in real time! Updated in real-time with information from the game you’re managing, put yourself in the stands like you’re sitting in the ballpark.

Drive for the Pennant is back - now for any season in baseball history!

Our popular new mode returns - now letting you explore any year in the entire history of the sport in this unique, streamlined single player challenge!
