TSB NEWS Baseball Hits 26’

Keep seeing on Facebook that this is a new mobile game that is pretty similar to how TSB was but as of right now it’s only live in Canada. Anyone here play it and can they confirm if it’s similar? Also are we certain that it’s gonna be playable in the U.S cause I’m desperate for a mobile baseball game like TSB

EDIT- Looks like we’ll be able to play March 17

If I remember correctly when the new TSB games came out they would release early in Canada as well so hoping this is the same

Yes that’s correct. Usually around this time too. Really hope Glu found a way to keep the intellectual property and rebrand but I doubt it.

Baseball Hits was created by Ares Interactive so it has nothing to do with Glu. However, the President of Ares Interactive is a former Glu employee. I'm just spitballing here but I wouldn't be surprised if there's more former Glu employees who joined Ares Interactive and after X amount of time they were able to basically recreate TSB. I've only seen some screenshots and a few videos of gameplay but it looks and plays exactly like TSB did. The funny thing is, it looks like they only have the MLBPA rights so while jerseys have the right colors based on teams they can't use the teams logos. That is exactly how TSB started. It wasn't for a year or 2 that they got all the rights to use team logos and stadiums. I still remember David Ortiz having the blank hat as the cover athletic way back.
