Community-Requested Features
New Tower Event Game Types
Two brand-new Tower Event experiences are coming to Baseball Hits 26.
Walk Off Hero
Step into the bottom of the 9th with the game on the line. Every scenario is pre-configured with the score, runners on base, outs, and opposing pitcher already set. Choose your batter and deliver the clutch hit to advance. A tie counts as a loss, so every swing matters.
Shutdown Hero
Take the mound instead. Choose your pitcher and protect the lead by retiring the opposing batter to advance through the Tower.
Multiple Active Tower Events
Multiple Tower Events can now run simultaneously.
The new Active Events screen brings every live Tower Event and Club Event together in one place, complete with red dot notifications whenever rewards are ready to collect.
Tower Event Roster Restrictions
Every Tower level can now feature unique roster restrictions.
Restrictions can be based on real-life team, rarity, position, rating, handedness, or even specific players. Once you begin a level, your eligible roster is locked until that level is completed, creating a new strategic challenge as you progress.
Lineups
Players can now create and save multiple Lineups.
Each Lineup contains a complete 25-player roster that can be renamed, customized, and equipped for specific Tower Events, Club Events, or Game Modes.
Lineups unlock after reaching a certain player level and are activated through purchase. Players assigned to a Lineup cannot be traded in until they are removed.
Better Trade-In Rewards
Trade-In rewards have been improved.
Rewards are now based on player Rarity and Level instead of Rarity and Tier, resulting in more accurate payouts. Depending on the player, Trade-Ins can now award up to three different currencies, and the confirmation screen shows every reward before you complete the trade.
New Content
Guaranteed Rewards
Selected Store offers can now feature a guaranteed reward.
A live counter shows exactly how many purchases remain before your reward is guaranteed. If you don’t receive it naturally before reaching that number, your next purchase will award it automatically. After receiving the guaranteed reward, the counter resets.
Three New Stadiums
Three new Stadiums are joining Baseball Hits 26, each with its own unique field dimensions that can change how you approach every at-bat.
Atlanta Park
Atlanta Park is built for left-handed power hitters. Left field features the closest wall in Baseball Hits 26 at just 346 feet, and the lowest wall at only 2 feet 9 inches, making it a prime target for home runs.
Center field tells a different story. At 445 feet away with a 13-foot 2-inch wall, you’ll need a monster blast to leave the yard.
Boston Park
Think twice before pulling the ball down the left field line.
Boston Park features the tallest wall in Baseball Hits 26 at 23 feet. Shots that would clear the fence in most parks may come crashing back into play off the towering brick wall.
Chicago North Park
Chicago North Park brings the most unique field layout in Baseball Hits 26.
The right field wall is both closer and lower than most parks at 380 feet and 3 feet 4 inches, creating tempting home run opportunities. But its distinctive zig-zag design can turn what looks like a sure home run into nothing more than a base hit.
Collect all three Stadiums and choose the one that best fits your play style.
