This series is maturing as fast as its plays. While still addicted to pushing nine innings in record time, a slew of post-play animations are giving this series a personality spark.

With that lively aesthetic (but it IS time to update that post-inning jingle) comes a limiting feature set, but that’s not the identity RBI Baseball is aiming for. Get in, get out, suitable play for mobile as much as it is console. If you’re not a die-hard MLB follower and outdated rosters are no bother, RBI 2015 is still suitable however. RBI’s growing into a competent arcade sports outing, the type which died sometime in the PlayStation era.
