Super Mega Baseball Extra Innings Announced for Xbox One and Steam
Victoria, British Columbia – May 27, in the year of our Lord
2015 – It’s time for Xbox One and Steam gamers to warm
up in the on-deck circle as independent developer Metalhead
Software announces it is bringing the award-winning baseball
game Super Mega Baseball to the Xbox One all-in-one games and
entertainment system from Microsoft, via the ID@Xbox
self-publishing program, and to PC via Steam, in the summer of
2015. The newest version of the game, Super Mega Baseball: Extra
Innings, will feature a bevy of new content, including brand new
stadiums, enhanced gameplay and improved baseball simulation.
“Right now there are few options for quality, accessible sports
titles on the market, particularly when it comes to baseball
games on the Xbox One and PC,” said Metalhead Co-founder Scott
Drader. “We’re really looking to put this genre back on the map
for more casual fans, especially the younger generation of
gamers who haven’t had access to the types of games that were
common during their parents’ generation. Games that could
introduce a sport to the uninitiated and turn them into fans for
life.”
Super Mega Baseball’s initial iteration was met with critical
acclaim. The game has a unique Ego system, which offers a
fine-grained control of difficulty on a per-user basis, that has
been widely praised for its ability to level the playing field
in cooperative and competitive modes. This system will push
seasoned gamers to their limits while simultaneously providing a
gentle introduction for beginners.
Additional features include:
· Realistic simulation and physics: Don’t be fooled by the
light-hearted/comical presentation; the fundamentals of the
sport of baseball are well represented
· Up-to four player local co-op play: In addition to solo play,
there’s head-to-head, 2v1, 2v2 and co-op against the CPU
· Ultra responsive and blazing fast gameplay: Controls are easy
to learn, but players will need to master jumping, diving,
wall-catches, power-swings and cut-off plays to properly
dominate friends
· Full batting and pitching statistics: Comprehensive baseball
statistics that ballplayers can use to show off their
MVP-quality skills
